Note di degustazione
Inky ruby. Spice-accented dark berry liqueur, candied violet and licorice qualities on the nose, along with hints of olive and exotic spices. Palate-staining boysenberry, cherry liqueur, floral pastille and fruitcake flavors show very good depth and a spine of juicy acidity. Expands steadily with air and finishes long and chewy, with mounting tannins and outstanding, floral-driven tenacity.

More spring flowers, incense, and orange blossom notes emerge from the 2016 Côte Rôtie Les Grandes Places, and it's incredibly exotic and complex aromatically. With medium-bodied richness and depth on the palate, it has a seamless, supple, elegant texture that carries ripe tannins and plenty of charm. As with the Champon's cuvée, it's already approachable but is going to evolve gracefully going forward.
Fermented with the stems, the medium to full-bodied 2016 Cote Rotie Les Grandes Places reflects that to some extent in its complex aromas of bay leaf, mint, green olives and raspberries. Like the other 2016s from Pichat, it's firm and tannic, yet it seems to have the requisite concentration to age well.
