LAST BOTTLE

DOUBLE 94 POINT Côte-Rôtie!!! Rhône Rangers, Syrah super fans, and wine lovers with a taste for spicy, meaty, utterly BEWILDERING bottles at unbeatable prices...your time...is...NOW!!!

A SUPER RARE, Northern Rhône, Côte-Rôtie co-fermentation of luscious, beastly, and intensely concentrated Syrah, with a color-intensifying dash of Viognier – from one of the most decorated, respected, and admired names in all of the Rhône…OGIER is in da HOUSE!!!

Oh baby – at the BEST PRICE in the entire Western Hemisphere, to boot?! YES!!! Stéphane took the helm of this prized domaine in the 1990s – and this seventh generation wine whisperer has become a giant…standing on the shoulders of giants – and ushering in an era of Burgundian precision, and highly-focused farming to some of the greatest Syrah vines on the entire planet! For this incredibly limited Mon Village bottling (usually only about 200 cases TOTAL each vintage) Stéphane is pulling from six PRIME vineyards across the Côte Brune and the Côte Blonde – all farmed ORGANICALLY – and vinified plot by plot to gently extract the character and purity of each site. Following twelve months aging, he carefully blends for an expression of his hometown of Ampuis – and the two hillsides that have come to define this exceptional region.

To get ANY of this DOUBLE 94 POINT maven is a coup – and you super-savvy Rhône ravagers have been snatching prior vintages of this off our sister site at First Bottle like the treasure hunting wine pirates you are – but after literal YEARS of begging…we finally got enough for a Last Bottle offer!!!

I must say…it’s not the sort of offer that will last the day, sadly. Just enough for a fantastic few hours of utterly BRILLIANT Rhône-ish Requiem…and then…POOF…gone forever! So…no time to waste!!! Under $70 is a stark-raving MAD deal on a wine such as this – and while the 2023 vintage across the Northern Rhône was as challenging as it gets – Côte-Rôtie was the unquestioned STANDOUT of the group – avoiding the hailstorms that marred Cornas and Crozes, and the mid-harvest rains that struck St. Joseph and Hermitage, all the while enjoying a late-summer warmth that served as a “final blessing” for the region.

“If I was pushed to say which appellation is the standout for the 2023 Northern Rhône vintage, I would probably go with Côte-Rôtie.” - Master of Wine Alistair Cooper

I mean…the scorched earth and roasted herbs! The blueberries, and hints of fig, with smoky iron, and crushed blackberries – brilliantly uplifted with violets, lilacs, and a light dusting of baby powder-like freshness…what…a…STUNNER! Pomegranates and dragonfruit come forth in the flavor profile, and the meaty, savory finish just goes on…and on…and ON!!! It’s plush, approachable, and fruit-forward enough to enjoy mightily – even in its youth…but this baby in five, ten…fifteen years?! Lights out and goodnight!

Sure, I’ll probably never hold out that long…‘cause my single solitary glass before the hordes of the Last Bottle office crew DEMOLISHED this bottle just goes to show how EPIC this is in the here and now…but at the end of the day…who cares! It’s as brilliant of a Northern Rhône expression as I’ve tasted all year…and that is saying something! Barely enough to share…go get ‘em, good people!

"I must confess that I approached the 2023 Côte-Rôtie Mon Village without particular expectation, yet it proved one of the more arresting surprises of the tasting. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of mocha, freshly ground coffee, dark berries and spices, subtly framed by oak, it is medium- to full-bodied, layered and finely textured. A fleshy core of fruit is supported by velvety tannins, leading into a perfumed, lively finish redolent of licorice, violets and dark berries. Introverted at first, it gains amplitude and definition with air, concluding on a note that is both flamboyant and precise. Kudos!" -Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Ogier's Mon Village is everything you'd want in an entry-level Côte-Rôtie, immediately fragrant with candied violets, black cherry fruit, and warm baking spices. Round, soft, supple, and full-bodied with expressive powdery graphite minerality, ironstone, and tangy blood orange acidity with notes of pressed spring flowers, sage oil, and thyme on the multifaceted finish." -Decanter

"Orange rind, dried violets and spicy tones introduce the fragrant 2023 Côte-Rôtie Mon Village. This medium-bodied and rounded red offers an early glimpse of the potential Stéphane Ogier achieved in Côte-Rôtie in 2023, following through with outstanding finesse and notable persistence on the concentrated finish." -Vinous

"The classic, entry-level cuvée here, the 2023 Côte Rôtie Mon Village sports a deep, saturated hue as well as terrific aromatics of red and black fruits, spice, flowers, and hints of leather. It's medium to full-bodied, round, and seamless, with the classic suppleness and sexiness of this vintage. It's impossible to resist today, yet given its overall balance, I see no reason this shouldn't keep for 15 years. Drink 2026-2041." -Jeb Dunnuck
