Vintage Character Domaine Yves et Mathilde Gangloff La Barbarine Côte-Rôtie 2022 captures the essence of Syrah grown on the appellation’s steep schist terraces, delivering a wine of both aromatic lift and structural depth. The 2022 vintage in the northern Rhône was shaped by a warm, dry summer tempered by cooler nights, resulting in wines with ripe fruit concentration, supple tannins, and freshness that preserves balance.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing In the glass, La Barbarine opens with dark berry fruit, violets, and a touch of spice, leading into a palate that is silky yet firm, with fine-grained tannins and a mineral-etched finish. Its versatility at the table is notable, pairing seamlessly with roast duck and cherries, braised beef short ribs, or the creamy richness of Saint-Marcellin cheese, while also complementing the savory-sweet character of Peking duck.
Winery Background The Gangloff estate, established by Yves and Mathilde Gangloff, has earned a devoted following for its artisanal approach and expressive wines. Their vineyards, carved into the dramatic slopes of Côte-Rôtie, are farmed with meticulous care, and all harvesting is done by hand due to the steep terrain.
The domaine is admired for combining precision with a sense of artistry, producing wines that balance power with elegance. Limited production, careful élevage, and a philosophy rooted in respect for terroir have made Gangloff one of the most distinctive names in the appellation, with La Barbarine embodying their signature style of accessibility and refinement.
