Note di degustazione
The 2015 Côte-Rôtie La Barbarine is an exquisite Northern Rhône wine that, after a decade, is revving its engines, ready for a long and delicious life ahead. The nose immediately delivers everything you want from Côte-Rôtie: blackberry and boysenberry fruit, time perhaps accentuating the floral aspect as notes of iris flower and peony emerge. The tang of autumn bonfire and flint soon join the chorus line. The weightless palate has exquisite balance with perfectly acidity, vivid black fruit, crushed stone and black olive tapenade notes, veins of blue fruit seeping through with aeration. Precise, controlled and poised, the 2015 slips down the throat with ease whilst persistently reminding you that this will be even better in another decade.

Glass-staining ruby. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes fresh blackberry and boysenberry, pungent flowers and smoky minerals. Intense, palate-staining black and blue fruit and floral pastille flavors are complicated by powerful spice and mineral notes that gain strength with air. Closes on a youthfully tannic note, showing excellent delineation, strong, mineral-driven persistence and lingering floral character.
Opaque ruby. A complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes fresh black and blue fruits, candied licorice, incense and dark chocolate, and a sexy floral nuance adds complexity. Broad, silky and appealingly sweet, offering intense black currant, boysenberry and candied violet flavors sharpened by a refreshing jolt of juicy acidity. Smoothly marries richness and vivacity and finishes extremely long, spicy and subtly tannic, leaving a sweet floral pastille note behind.
