Côte - Rotie
Condrieu, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Nice, well-rounded CR, open and charming with lovely freshness. Fruity and brisk at first, slowly developed with more savory and floral nuances coming out with air. Day 2 was rocking. Black cherry/roast plum, violet, garrigue, singed wood, dried olives, granite.

Very pleasant already but plenty of promises and yet more complexity to come. Keep an eye on this one.
