Description
Fully certified organic, this small estate does most work in the vineyards manually and is highly regarded in Côte-Rôtie. The domaine is now run by Guillaume Clusel Roch who extended it by planting Chardonnay and Gamay in the Coteaux du Lyonnais AOC.
Traboules, referring to Lyon’s secret passageway, is fermented with native yeasts and aged for six months in stainless steel tanks so the grapes can fully express themselves. Bright floral aromas with an intense and juicy palate of black and red fruits with an earthy undertone. Gentle tannins and a refreshing acidity leave a satisfying and persistent finish.
A delicious alternative to Gamay from Beaujolais that will work wonders with grilled meat, cheese, and charcuterie.
Gilbert Clusel and his wife Brigitte Roch own this small estate in the northern Rhône. Their son Guillaume joined the domaine in 2009 and is now running the estate. He has significantly increased the vineyard area, mainly by planting Gamay and Chardonnay in Millery, Coteaux du Lyonnais. Today the property is about eight hectares, including five hectares in Côte Rôtie and just half in Condrieu.
