Rockss and Fruit
-
By Lyle Fass
(Yves Gangloff Cote Rotie) This was spectacular albeit a touch closed. This is before Gangloff went to the dark side per se and started spoofing the shit out of his wines. There was one cuvee then and he aged the stuff in old foudre. Now there are two cuvees. Oakier and Oakiest. This had a lovely nose of spice, some cherry and bluberry and earth. The palate had an uncanny freshness about it. It would have refreshed me on a hot day on the beach kind of freshness we are talking here. The palate had great balance and concentration and a long finish. There was fruit but it took some coaxing to come out. Seemed a bit closed in that respect. But even with minimal fruit it was a lovely wine. When the fruit kicks in, in say about 3-5 years, this will be a stunner.

Olive, roasted meat, and black and white pepper with raspberry fruit, savory and delicious.

Pretty much everything I want in a mature Côte-Rôtie. It's at the stage of development where it's showing equal parts fruit and mature leathery, earthy, meaty and other tertiary notes, the structure's fully integrated and it comes across very polished and graceful on the palate, and this is a wonderful wine to sit down and drink over a few hours.

Medium red-garnet, some bricking. Rich, meaty nose with wood smoke, pepper, plum, floral accents . Round, smooth mouth feel, low acid, fine tannins. Spot-on for Cote Rotie in flavor typicity for mixed Brune and Blonde sourcing of fruit. Drinking well for a '95 right now. Bottle #4 of four.
