The Story
I loved the 2020 Côte Rôtie Vieilles Vignes, a spectacular Côte Rôtie that offers up heavenly notes of black raspberries, cassis, spring flowers, and bacon fat. A quintessential expression of this appellation, it's medium to full-bodied, has a layered, pure, seamless mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. It's approachable today and will continue drinking brilliantly over the coming 15-20 years.
