Domaine Rostaing
Domaine Rostaing is a benchmark estate in Ampuis, in the northern Rhône Valley, home to the famed Côte-Rôtie appellation. Led by René and Pierre Rostaing, the domaine released its first vintage in 1971, starting from just 1.5 hectares split between two of the appellation’s most prestigious sites: Côte Blonde and La Landonne.
Over the years the estate has grown thanks to new plantings and the takeover of the vineyards of Albert Dervieux-Thaize and Marius Gentaz, respectively René Rostaing’s father-in-law and uncle, two historic names of Côte-Rôtie. Today the domaine farms 8 hectares in Côte-Rôtie and 1 hectare in Condrieu.
The range showcases the great terroirs of the northern Rhône: in AOC Côte-Rôtie, Ampodium, La Landonne and Côte Blonde stand out; in AOC Condrieu, the white La Bonnette. Completing the offering are Les Lézardes red and white in IGP Collines Rhodaniennes and, outside the valley, Puech Noble red and white in AOC Languedoc.
From the first historic parcels to today’s range, Domaine Rostaing is a true reference point for discovering the elegance of the wines of Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu.
