Joseph Roty - Bourgogne Rouge 2019

Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

Domaine Joseph Roty has been in the same family for twelve generations, since 1710, and has one of the largest followings of any Burgundian grower. ‘We keep faith with real Burgundy!' says Pierre-Jean who has been running the domaine for the last few years. Very old vines and a traditional approach in the vineyard and cellar create wines of remarkable character and depth. Everything is destemmed and they bottle without fining or
filtration, following the phases of the moon. The wines are capable of ageing for decades and develop the most wonderful aromas and complex flavours. 

The 2019 Bourgogne Rouge comes from vines in Marsannay even through Roty told me that he could legally label it as Marsannay Village. It has a detailed bouquet for its category, quite floral, offering incense and pressed iris flower. The palate is silky-smooth on the entry with hints of blueberry; stylish and showing a little more finesse than the 2018. Surprisingly finessed.

From parcels in Marsannay, Roty’s 2018 Bourgogne Rouge offers up aromas of cherries, raspberries, dark chocolate and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety, with powdery tannins and a succulent core of fruit, it’s showing well."
