Declassified vintage. Atypical but still delicious.

A Cote rotie in VdF clothing. You can see the original sticker ghosted in the background when they didn’t get paperwork in to the AOP in time. Plenty of olive and bacon aromas. Ripe fruit on this 2015.

From the minimally produced, minimally exported Bénetière. Bright, fresh and ultra focused with a beautiful elegant floral nose, boysenberry, granite, hints of black pepper and Burgundy-like stems. The finish is long and finessed. One day I have to try the Dolium! 😁

Beautiful bacon nose. Bright raspberry fruit. Textbook Cote Rotie drinking nicely already.

Terrific focus here, balancing fruit, stems, oak and tannin.

Floral but still dark and brooding. Meaty and hot tar but still fresh and lifted. So great so young. Can't imagine the heights this could reach.
