December 25, 2023 - Finished the last bottle, previously Coravined. Quite a gentle, even lightish Cote Rotie, delicate red fruit, almost Burgundian. Good balance. but probably needing drunk relatively soon now.

September 28, 2023 - TWS North London; Cote Rotie and Condrieu at Must & Lees (Must & Lees, N1): Classic but quite retiscent on the nose. Full of class and loads of stuffing. But not overly generous at the moment. 91+

September 28, 2023 - Condrieus and Côte-Rôties of North London (Must & Lees): Bought as part of a mixed case from auction, and very happy there's another bottle (that I'll probably now drink in the next couple of years) as this was delicious. Seamless, sensual, red-fruited nose, and then a beautiful airy experience on the palate, with its waves of lush fruit. Gorgeously silky, and yet also dry and sophisticated. Lovely.

September 28, 2023 - Condrieu and Cote Rotie; 9/28/2023-10/28/2023 (Must and Lees, N1): Some reduction, this is perhaps softer than the other two in the flight, less zippy but still so good. There is a certain freshness and elegance to it though, lovely balance, and once again I am reminded of Burgundy but in a more concentrated form, with more oomph.

September 28, 2023 - Condrieu and Cote Rotie (Must & Lees, N1): Loads of tapenade, some vanilla. Beautifully smooth and slightly floral, a touch of meat. All the CR notes present and correct in a beautifully balanced, refined package. Nothing too extravert here, wonderfully fresh and concentrated - something Burgundian about this one. Loved it.
