Côte Rôtie La Belle Hélène 2005 is a full-bodied Syrah red wine from the northern Rhône Valley. Crafted by Michel and Stéphane Ogier, this wine is sourced from older Serine vines, reflecting the region`s historical winemaking traditions. The vinification involves a meticulous process of cold pre-fermentation maceration, followed by gentle extraction techniques. Aged for 30 months in new oak barrels, it reveals a spectrum of aromas and flavours characteristic of Côte Rôtie. Known for their commitment to traditional practices, the Ogier family has been producing wine in the region since the 1800s.

The polar opposite of the perfumed, elegant and nuanced Lancement cuvee, the blockbuster styled 2005 Cote Rotie Belle Helene has overflowing notes of smoked meats, peppery herbs, licorice, scorched earth and decadent dark fruits. Thick, unctuous, full-bodied and massively endowed, this superstar Cote Rotie won’t hit full maturity for another 4-6 years, and will keep for 10-15 years after that. - Jeb Dunnuck
94 Vinous
Deep ruby. Intensely floral dark berry aromas, complemented by Asian spices and musky underbrush. Powerful, deeply concentrated cherry and cassis flavors display an unlikely elegance, along with a supple texture and impressive mineral snap on the close. The finish goes on endlessly, repeating the sweet dark fruit and spice flavors. Less elegant than the Lancement but with an extra degree of depth.
