  A very pretty surprise. Welcoming now and albeit at the start of its drinking window was ever so pretty to enjoy. Soft smoky on the nose, good dark fruit, well structured , firm. Welcoming though and silky on the edges, nice soft richness and last touches of oak. Very good. 92 and lots of life ahead.

  Just pnp after the last sip of a Bordeaux, this bottle has a quite balanced showing right after pouring, the nose full of tertiary aromas, stable, violet, forest soil, mushrooms, some herbs, maybe some fruit in the background, would say plums, on the palate some refreshing mineralic hints, good grip, elegant, midbodied and not too much alcohol (13% ABV), some black fruit, ending long and fresh with a good supporting acidity, needs only little time to open up, but the acidity indicates a long life, enjoy from now on and over the next decade(+), **(*-****), 90-91+ potential

  Magnifique nez de fruits rouges. Animal. Bouche très fruitée et longue. Beaucoup de précision dans le fruité. Un délice.

  EWS -- Cote Rotie Tasting: Sour components of ripe fruit mixed with some barnyard aromas. Bit closed, made for aging. Dark chocolate, animal notes. Thinking Italy -- Maremma maybe. Great, mineral mouthfeel, Delicious now.

  Perfect bottle.
  Dark, dense and compact.
  Very fruity. Lots of violets, blueberries and blackberries. Like candy.
  Tough tannins and good acidity that stand up to the fruit. Good balance, good grip.
  I must say this is not a typical Côte Rôtie.
