Note di degustazione
Unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage, the 1996 Côte Rôtie La Turque is sheer genius from this team and has more depth, density, and opulence than just about every other wine in the vintage. Still ruby/plum-hued with almost no lightening at the rim, this stunning effort offers a concentrated, full-bodied, yet focused, structured mouthfeel as well as that classic gamey, floral, red, blue, and black fruit character that's always present in this cuvée. It's oak, acidity, and tannins are perfectly integrated, it's flawlessly balanced, and it still has another two decades of longevity if it's been well stored.

The 1996 Cote Rotie La Turque possesses a dark, saturated ruby/purple color, aromas of caramel, vanillin, and smoked cherry jam, medium to full body, outstanding ripeness, a plush, surprisingly soft finish, and loads of glycerin. This effort should be drunk over the next 12-15 years. Importer: Fred Ek, Ex Cellars Wine Agencies, Solvang, CA; tel. (805) 686-9153
