Wines from Domaine Levet: buy at the best price

Domaine Levet is located in Ampuis in Côte-Rôtie. In 2004, Agnès Levet succeeded her father Bernard and became the fourth generation at the helm of this family estate founded in 1929. In the early 1950s, when many Rhône estates were out of fashion, Marius Chambeyron had the good idea of planting Petite Serine vines, an old Syrah variety, less productive as it yields smaller clusters. These vines were planted on the steep hillsides of Côte-Rôtie, including the famous Landonne, and have become part of the magnificent 4.3-hectare heritage of Domaine Levet.

The TOP winemakers of Rhône

For 30 years, the estate has practised mass selection, using old vines to create new vine plants, and the recipe works perfectly. The vineyard is divided into nearly 20 plots, worked across 9 sectors: the Côte Blonde, which is the oldest plot dating back to 1929, the Côte Brune and its terraces, Landonne and its altitude, Chavaroche, Mollard, Baleyat, Truchet, Fongeant and Leyat. The vines, averaging nearly 50 years of age, are worked by hand throughout the year according to the principles of sustainable farming, which prohibits the use of insecticides. The average yield is around 40 hl/ha and the domaine de Levet uses manure to promote vine growth. In the cellar, macerations are long and the ageing lasts 24 months in barrel in order to enhance their ageing potential. The proportion of new wood is always kept low so as to let the terroir express itself with elegance and to favour the fruit without marking the wines. On average, Domaine Levet produces 12,000 bottles of wine per year, spread across its three Côte-Rôtie. The first, "Amethyst", is a blend of all the estate's vines; it is a harmonious and balanced wine, spiced, smoky and mineral with supple and elegant tannins. It can be opened early. "Maestria" is a delicate and elegant wine, characterised by intense fruit, with notes of flowers and smoke and very fine tannins. Sourced from the famous La Landonne plot, it can be kept for at least 10 years. Finally, "La Péroline" is a refined, juicy and balanced wine, with a floral and smoky bacon finish. It is powerful, distinguished and rich in tannins, with very pronounced mineral notes, and has a great ageing potential of 15 years or more — imperative for it to reach its full potential. Finally, the estate offers in small volumes a very elegant Condrieu, naturally 100% Viognier. The wines of Domaine Levet are highly recommended, with the Amethyst being the most immediately accessible, and the least expensive, wine for appreciating the style of the estate's wines.
