Thursday, September 11, 2014 - I'm sorry but anyone rating this as an 89 or 90 is palate-deaf.
I have had four bottles of this vintage and this wine, while one of the "lesser" Cote-Roties, is delicious, unique, and wonderful.
Cinnamon, pencil lead, anise, earth, saddleleather, sea salt, so much going on here with the demure clean red fruits....mouthwatering!! Love this wine in this vintage for the price.....you can't do better in Cote Rotie at that price for this vintage.
