Les Fils à Jo Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2020

Popped and poured; enjoyed over several hours. The 2020 Champet “Les Fils à Jo” pours a deep purple color with a magenta rim and a nearly opaque core. Medium viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, whoa…all. of. the. berries. There are also black plums with some cigar box, new leather, lavender, bacon fat and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry, medium+ tannin, medium+ acid. Confirming the notes on the nose. Finish long and super spicy with a generous helping of black pepper. Even though this is super primary, the quality is on display which makes this a fun wine to try in its youth. That being said, this is built for the long haul and to my palate, the best is yet to come. Best after 2030 and should be great well past 2045. — 10 months ago

@Lyle Fass I have not. In fact, I haven’t had any of Patrick Jasmin’s wines. But I’m kinda a big Levet junkie.

Grand Vin Côte-Rôtie Syrah

Birthday wine for Danny. Mature with light red rim - lighter body but round flavors which compliment food. Ready to drink over the next few years. A delightful Rhone. — 7 years ago

Côte Blonde Côte-Rotie Syrah Viognier 1980

Mature Cote-Rotie from Champet from Estate fruit. Mid level color with hints of orange on the edge- resolved tannins and a smooth textured mouth coating flavors. Very good. — 6 years ago
