Note di degustazione
(15% vendange entier ; harvested on September 3): Bright ruby-red. Shows a distinctly warmer-vintage character on the nose than the La Serenne, with a pungent granitic element to go with its very ripe red berry aromas. Thick and highly concentrated in a distinctly salty style; less about primary fruit and more about stone, earth and saline minerality. Very strong on the back end, with excellent stony thrust calling for at least a couple years of cellaring.

From the hot, windswept slopes of Red Mountain, the 2014 Syrah la Cote Rousse is a serious, tight, backwards effort that won’t be for those looking for instant gratification. Possessing classic Red Mountain red and black fruits, dried earth, pepper, dried spice and black olive characteristics, it’s full-bodied, beautifully textured, has flat out awesome purity and impeccable balance. Give it 4-5 years of cellaring and drink it over the following decade or so.
