2016 Cote Rotie Fructus Voluptas

Bright magenta. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red/blue fruits, candied flowers and baking spices. Smoky mineral notes build in the glass. Concentrated but lively as well, offering alluringly sweet black raspberry, blueberry and spicecake flavors that are braced by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows excellent clarity and mineral thrust on the finish, which strongly echoes the blue fruit and floral notes. (all neutral oak)
