Note di degustazione
The 2010 Cote Rotie Maison Rouge continues to drink beautifully. Copious dustings of dried spices and cracked pepper mark the nose, while the supple, silky-textured palate offers generous red fruit notes. It's medium to full-bodied, concentrated but open, with a long, elegant finish. It should drink well for at least another decade.

Utterly, seductively gorgeous with pepper, meat, chocolate and spice. Fragrant, long, open-knit, aniseed notes on the finish with soy and black olive. A gentle giant. (RH)
(all syrah, from vines that are over 50 years old): Deep ruby. Exuberant, highly fragrant scents of black raspberry, blueberry, potpourri and floral oils, along with a zesty mineral nuance. Fine-grained, expansive red and dark berry flavors are complicated by floral pastille and Asian spice notes that build with aeration. A sexy, palate-staining, velvety wine that finishes sappy, spicy and extremely long. This wine's exotic perfume made me think that it was vinified mostly with whole clusters but Christine Vernay told me that she destemmed all but 20% of the fruit.
