La Landonne Côte-Rotie Syrah
Blackberry, white clay, and a touch of licorice, not showing much wood, very nice.

Feb 18th, 2018Still showing way too much oak, it paled next to the other Core Roties, and particularly the Francois.

Oct 21st, 2017A powerhouse of a wine. First time trying one of the "La's" and this did not disappoint. Decanted for 2 hours and at cellar temp, this was excellent. Meaty and earthy aromatics, mouth filling, long finish, good acid. Tannins could be slightly more integrated - will be very interesting to try in another couple years.
