  -more on the fruit end of the C-R spectrum rather than the savory side thought it has started to fade, probably on its prime drinking plateau now, pleasant if not all that complex

  August 11, 2022 - Whoa, what a fascinating wine. I didn't know what to expect after my first sip. Very tart, dry and almost thin in the first 30 minutes or so. The next hour, a completely different story. Initially very acidic and red fruited with not a lot of body, weight or stuffing. The evolution though, was quite interesting. It's like a Burgundy and Barbaresco had a baby. The wine became very floral, aromatic and elegant and somewhat silky, yet drying and mouth-puckering. Red fruit still there, but with soem darker fruit weaved in. A little barnyard thrown in there as well. Smells and tastes like iron and blood. Don't know if I would classify this Cote Rotie as delicious, but it was a deceptively complex wine that I can see in a multi-course meal, expertly paired with a medium-rare grilled skirt, flat iron or hanger steak...yeah, something like that.
