Terroir on the nose, bright fruit rounded off with nice acidity. A fantastic bottle!

A powerhouse and perfectly defining this style of Côte Rôtie. Rich and textured with both berrylike character as well as smoky dark aromas. A classic

Smoked meat, violet, leather, and black pepper. Couldn't be anything other than northern Rhone after looking at those tasting notes

A bit underwhelming perhaps the vintage is slagging. All of the easy drinking Syrah notes are there but the mineral bite of the North is gone.

Garrigue, bacon fat, game, terracotta and red fruits show on the nose. Fresh, medium bodied and moderately intense on the palate, with pleasing layers of the bouquet. Good all round.

Balanced muted dark fruit terroir driven. Lacks some panache but ok enough
