Domaine Sérol "Perdrizière" red 2023

RVF Guide to the Best Wines of France 2026 (Sept 2025): 92/100. Chez Costes is in a phase of restraint that highlights its great tannic depth. Perdrizière remains the most complete lieu-dit in the range, displaying depth, honesty, and a delightful juiciness.

Technical sheet written by the domaine:

Grape variety: 100% gamay saint romain

Gamay: A black grape variety with white juice, it takes its name from the hamlet of Gamay in the municipality of Saint-Aubin, on the Côte de Beaune. Rarely found in the world, this grape is planted on only 33,000 ha, of which 30,000 ha are in France, mainly in Beaujolais and the Loire Valley.

Gamay Saint Romain: This is a variant of gamay that is only found in Côte Roannaise.

Vineyard
1.5 ha of vines planted at high density (8,500 plants/ha) on deep gorrhe soil.
The soils are worked mechanically, and the vines are nourished by returning prunings as well as by the addition of organic matter and lime. Many tasks require manual labor: pruning, debudding, lifting, leaf removal...
