Côte-Rôtie La Péroline Vignobles Levet
Information
About the producer

This family-run property was established in 1929 and has passed through four generations. Marius Chambeyron, who was a market gardener and from the second of these generations, planted vineyards on a number of lieux-dits including La Landonne. Today, Agnès Levet has fine-tuned the winemaking and continues to tend these superb plots in the heart of Côte Blonde and Côte Brune. 55% of the parcels were planted before 1953. One of the varieties cultivated here is Petite Serine, an ancient type of Syrah which produces lower yields and smaller, better-spaced clusters. The domain has practised massal selection (taking cuttings from old vines to propagate new vineyards) since the 1990s. The Levet's wine shop is in the centre of Ampuis, opposite the church.

About the wine

Another Agnès Levet parcel-based cuvée, La Péroline comes from the Chavaroche lieu-dit, which may be the less famous sibling of the legendary Landonne, but is nonetheless its equal in quality. Its immense potential for keeping allows the tannins to mellow and the wine's minerality to reveal itself with elegance. This racy Côte-Rôtie is vinified traditionally and matured for two years in oak demi-muid barrels before bottling. One of the appellation's reliable classics; not to be missed.
