after one to two weeks

There's significant flavour impact but not at the expense of finesse and freshness

It was set to age oxidatively from the get-go

E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie ‘Château d’Ampuis’ 1.5L 2019 clos-des-papes after one to two weeksThe hallmark of Chteau dAmpuis is an unbelievably seductive perfume full of sweet black fruits and spices, and an elegance despite the intense concentration of fruit (prunes, blackberry) and tannin. Chteau dAmpuis defines what a great Cte Rtie should be with its beautiful balance, muscular complexity and length. A wine from a tannic and muscular vintage due to the hot climate. Solid tannins, yet well rounded by long oak ageing.
