Note di degustazione
Bright ruby. Highly aromatic nose shows raspberry, blackberry, Asian spices and dried violet. Classic Cote-Rotie, with elegant red and dark berry character and sexy finishing notes of cinnamon and allspice. Showing more energy and grip than it did in barrel.

From a cooler, slightly more challenging vintage, the medium-bodied 2007 Cote Rotie Classique does not display any greenness or excessive acidity. It offers creamy black cherry and red currant fruit intermixed with notions of forest floor and smoke. Drink this medium-bodied, elegant 2007 during its first 6-10 years of life. (Not yet released) One of the benchmark producers of Cote Rotie, Rene Rostaing’s wines are made in a classic, traditional style, and are aged in either demi-muids or small barrels, a tiny percentage of which is new. Rostaing’s 25 acres spread throughout heritage sites on the two hillsides of the Cote Blonde and Cote Brune include some of the finest vineyards of the appellation.

Ruby-red. Smoky red and dark berries on the nose, with a subtle floral note adding interest. Round and fleshy, with nicely concentrated raspberry and bitter cherry flavors and mounting sweetness. Richer but less vibrant than the 2006 rendition, with gentle tannins and good finishing persistence. I suspect that this will drink well young.
Mid crimson. Pretty funky, but very interesting and intriguing nose. Very polished and relatively forward. Complex and confident, (JR)
