Côte-Rôtie “La Reynarde”

« The treasures are born in the very heart of the most legendary of the illustrious plots of the Maison Guigal. These precious bottles are as coveted as they are rare and have benefited from extreme care at every stage of the process, from the vine to the cellars. They are the sole incarnation of the inspiration and inheritance of centuries of viticulture in an exceptional terroir »
Côte-Rôtie “La Reynarde” becomes the fourth of LaLa’s. Originally, the Reynard stream separated La Côte Blonde from La Côte Brune, and indeed, this wine delivers a perfect balance between elegance and power.
