La Rodeline - C. & Y. Roduit-DéfayesRouge d'Y 2023

About this wine

Rouge d'Y from La Rodeline is a wine that captures the essence of Valais in a glass. This 2023 syrah shows why the region has become so exciting for red wine lovers.

The wine opens with bright red fruit notes, think cherries and raspberries, layered with a subtle peppery edge that gives it personality. There's a nice freshness to it, with tannins that are present but never aggressive. It's the kind of wine that feels balanced and honest, without trying too hard.

Pair this with local dishes like dried meat and cheese, or a simple grilled lamb. It also works beautifully with hearty vegetable-based dishes. Serve it slightly cool, around 15 to 16 degrees, and you'll get the best out of it. This is a wine that rewards you for taking your time with it.
