Note di degustazione
The 2016 Côte Rôtie Terrasses is rock-solid, and while it shows the classic, elegant style of the vintage, it brings plenty of richness and depth. Classic Côte Rôtie gamey red and black fruits, smoked herbs, bacon fat, truffly earth and some floral notes define the bouquet, and it's medium to full-bodied and balanced, with ripe tannins and a great finish. It's about 3-4 years from maturity and should have a solid 20-25 years of overall longevity.

100% Syrah. Aged for 20 months in oak (20% new). Quite a bit of reduction on the nose, giving a rubbery edge, but there is impressive, potent fruit too. Better clarity on the palate, and there’s loads of violet character and leather with a touch of earthy funk on the finish. Loads of expressiveness here – full of the first flush of youth. You’d have to have tolerance for that reductive element, but for me, the fruit intensity more than makes up for it. (RH)
Deep, brilliant ruby. Spice-accented aromas of fresh black and blue fruits, violet and olive, along with a hint of cola. Juicy and seamless on the palate, offering gently sweet boysenberry and cherry flavors that are sharpened by a peppery nuance. Shows good focus on the nicely persistent, gently tannic finish, which leaves a note of bitter chocolate behind.
Much lighter and more relaxed than the 2015, with a touch of herbal complexity. Dry and appetising on the finish. Perhaps not as weighty as the 2015, but similarly complex. (RH)
