Tasting note
Also classic in style, the 2011 Cote Rotie Les Becasses offers up notions of peat moss, olive, licorice and earthy notes that are supported by gorgeous cassis and darker berry fruit. Textured, rich and with surprising depth and richness, this medium to full-bodied Cote Rotie can be consumed any time over the coming decade or more. Score - 91. (Jeb Dunnuck, erobertparker.com, Dec. 2013)
Ruby in colour, this red boasts a intense nose exuding empyreumatic, spicy, floral and fruity aromas. Discover this full-bodied wine expressing refreshing acidity and offering a broad texture and fleshy tannins. It also unveils a intense mouthfeel that leads into a long finish.
Deep purplish red. Raspberry, hint of violet, predominant of spices, a touch of black olive and “ tapenade” , rosemary. Ample and deep, woody, spicy and vanilla final .
