Community Tasting Note

eboracum Likes this wine:

Thursday, February 6, 2020 - I had a stash of 3 bottles of 2000 but this is first time I noticed "Côte Brune" on the label. Whether the two previous bottles were the same or not I can no longer check, but the wines are very similar with fragrant aromas of griotte cherries, metal, grilled meat, violets and olives on the nose. Likewise the palate is medium bodied at most but with lovely savoury fruit, minerals, a little pepper, lively acidity, silky mouth-feel, enough tannic grip and decent length. At first sip before food, the acidity was prominent but a mouthful of duck sufficed to bring it into lovely balance. Very good.
