A baby Cote Rotie from famed Rhone producer Patrick Jasmin. The juice for his second label, La Chevaliere, comes from 40+ year old vines from the tiny patch of La Chevaliere as well as juice from other plots that wasn't quite ready for being made into his Cote Rotie.
Patrick Jasmin is the fourth generation of winemaker to work his family's 5.3 hectares in the Cote Rotie. Interestingly, these vines were a gift to Patrick's grandfather for his service as a chef at the Chateau Ampuis in the early 1900's. The vines are distributed amongst 11 plots in the schist-based Cote Brune and Cote Blond parcels. The terroir contributes to the mineral-rich, feminine quality of the wines.
Jasmin has garnered a significant reputation for his dedication to the innate qualities of the region. He produces only one cuvee of his Cote Rotie, and practices a saignee (or bleeding) of his juice, removing that which is the lightest-colored, before fermentation. Patrick feels this adds structure and depth to the finished wine.
