2009 Rostaing Cote-Rotie Cote Blonde

“... Wow! This nose has a beguiling serenity floating across it depth … airs of slight grilling, toasting, intense cherry. The palate offers a Margaux-style finesse … a classy ensemble. ‘I am very happy – there is very belle structure and beaux tannins that are fine – a sublime expression of the Blonde,’ R.Rostaing.”

“... offers knockout richness and depth to go with notes of graphite, sweet black raspberry, earth, and spice. Possessing exuberant and overflowing levels of fruit, with chewy, rustic, yet ripe tannin, this is a blockbuster to drink over the coming 15-20 years.”
