In a few words ...
Cuvée La Germine is the estate's main cuvée. It is a typical example of Côte-Rôtie from the south of the Côte-Rôtie appellation. It is composed of 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier. It comes from several lieux dits (Coteau de Tupin, Tupin, le collet, Maison-Rouge, coteau de Bassenon) all located on Gneiss or Migmatite bedrock. This complete, well-balanced cuvée expresses the elegance of the Côte-Rôtie appellation.

Appellation
Côte-Rôtie
The appellation Côte-Rôtie is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Duclaux and its 4 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
