Patrick Jasmin is one of the superstar farmers along the infamous terraces of Côte-Rôtie in the Northern Rhône. The 'La Giroflarie' Côte-Rôtie 2020 enchants with an aromatic nose of dark fruits, violets, and a hint of spice. The palate enjoys a bold and refined attack, as flavors of blackberry, plum, and hints of lavender intertwine harmoniously. The finish is long-lasting and elegant, leaving a lasting impression of finesse and complexity. Domaine Jasmin's 'La Giroflarie' is a captivating expression of Côte-Rôtie's terroir, a wine that captures the essence of Syrah and Viognier. One of the jewels of Northern Rhône winemaking.
