Rostaing Domain

René Rostaing is a great winemaker. He took over the production of the vineyard from his father-in-law, Albert Dervieux in 1971. Today René Rostaing owns 1 hectare in the Condrieu appellation (la Bonnette) and 7 hectares in Côte-Rôtie, including a 2-hectare plot in the prestigious place called La Landonne, vinified separately. This cuvée ages particularly well and has little to envy to that of Guigal, yet better known by wine lovers. Another plot (1 ha) of the estate is located on the terraces of the famous Côte Blonde, considered one of the most qualitative of the appellation. A third smaller parcel of Côte Brune is located next to La Turque de Guigal. These 3 plot cuvées are aged for 24 months in oak barrels of “several wines”. They give wines that are at the top of the appellation and that we recommend to each wine lover to taste at least once in their life... René Rostaing also owns parcels of Coteaux du Languedoc, at the Puech Noble estate, whose production comes in two pretty red cuvées and a superb white cuvée. From now on, it is Pierre, his son, who masterfully leads these two areas in sustainable agriculture, without seeking to revolutionize the methods that his father had been able to establish.
