A light-to-mid weight Cote-Rotie. But lots of flavour and character notwithstanding. I think the vintage features a lot of wines that seem a tad diluted - this is one. A good bit of spice and elegant Syrah. Not green or vegetal. Just a bit thin. Medium finish. I wouldn't bother holding - tastes fine now and I don't think it will make old bones in this vintage.
