2010 Marie et Pierre Bénetière Côte-Rôtie Cordeloux
Community Tasting Note

91 Points
Saturday, November 4, 2017 - Lovely nose of campfire, black fruits and smoky minerals. Beautifully balanced with flavors of charcoal and smoky blackberry. There is a finely-grained texture here with fine notes of minerals and dark spices. Suffered from being drunk alongside an Allemand Cornas but quite refined and delicious in its own right. It kept improving in the glass and clearly will benefit from more aging. 91+
