Robert & Stephane Rousset

Robert & Stephane Rousset works in the Northern Rhône, where granite slopes and continental climate shape wines of mineral precision and dark intensity. The winery's portfolio centers on two appellations: Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph, both built on Syrah and white Marsanne. The Vieilles Vignes Marsanne Crozes-Hermitage expresses the region's white-wine tradition—structured, textured, and age-worthy. Les Picaudières Crozes-Hermitage, a Syrah-based wine, captures the darker, peppery character typical of the appellation's hillside fruit. A Saint-Joseph rounds the range, offering the broader, more voluptuous expression of Syrah found across the river. Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Decanter have all assessed these releases. The winery's focus remains narrow and regional: the Northern Rhône's classic expressions, without deviation into trend or excess.
