Les Journaries Côte-Rôtie Syrah
Aromatically beautiful wine, so much perfume, unfortunately the balance on the palate seemed off, short metallic finish with high acidity, maybe some Brett in this bottle

Feb 11th, 2014In this vintage, would have been hard pressed to say this wasn't the single vineyard bottling unless tasted side by side--powerful and complex, liquid rocks up front, with structure just beginning to soften enough for fruit and savory elements to emerge.
