La Turque Côte-Rôtie Syrah


Spectacular. Ethereal nose of strawberry and faint notes of cured meats. 1,000 layers after it came to temp, needed a short decant. This has turned towards Burg with a lightness and power. Silky smooth. Thanks, Aaron. 🙏🏼

Plenty of Syrah typicity. A rich anise quality. A touch of smoke preceding noticeable VA on the finish.

1997 vintage. The nose on this is the shit. Heavy black fruited, coffee and chocolate, savoury, herbal, tan leather and Earth. Smokey and rich. Huge complexity. On the palate, wonderful balance of acidity and concentration. Layers of flavour. Huge length. Wonderfully integrated tannins. This is the bollocks. No apologies. Off the charts.
