Licorice and spice on the nose. Stunning fruit. Just delicious and juicy. Nice spice on the palate. Fantastic lingering licorice spice finish. Will age for sure but is drinking wonderfully now. Definitely a wine you wish you had bought more.

Big olive on the nose with dark meaty Syrah fruit underneath. Ripe and juicy with terrific freshness due to great acids. Lovely silky fruit and juicy. Much better on day 2. Long.

My first Cote Rotie so I can't compare this wine with peers. Nevertheless I really liked a complexity and long finish. Great staff from Lyle Fass.

Super tight on day 1 even after decanting but came around quite nicely after an hour or so. Most of the tannins have been totally shed by day 2. Leaving a great balance of fruit and earth.
