Description
Components of the final blend tasted from barrel.
Ampodium is a blend of fruit from 20 different parcels across 15 to 16 lieux dits which, this year, also includes the always impressive Viallère. The wine is unusually open at this stage, being very expressive and generous with plenty of red and black cherry fruit. The palate is soft and rich yet with that wonderful freshness that defines Rostaing. This a surprisingly approachable and very delicious Ampodium.

Critics reviews
The 2023 Côte-Rôtie Ampodium entices with zesty blood orange, black cherry and violet notes. Medium-bodied with a fresh, juicy profile, the 2023 is remarkably accessible, offering total freshness and class. This is a Côte-Rôtie to watch, closing with stemmy subtleties on the juicy finish.
Drink 2026 - 2036
A medium-bodied style, this has a good sense of vibrancy, lovely bright acidity and crunchy, defined tannins. Raspberry scented, with blood orange notes too – it's very fresh but ripe, with great energy and pep. It's not hugely concentrated, but there's a lovely taut, briskly tannic structure. 90% whole bunches this year – Tupin was destemmed a bit.
Drink 2030 - 2037

Today, Côte-Rôtie is synonymous with precision, elegance, and longevity—qualities that place its finest bottles alongside the world’s most sought-after wines.
