Côte Rôtie Syrah
Côte-Rôtie, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Cat-Rotie. Gorgeous nose. Floral, feral, meaty, gamey, blackberry, lovely mineral and vivid. deep fruit. Palate is super juicy and elegant with lovely pure fruit and terrific freshness. Really fine tannins. 2013 is so good for Côte Rotie. Terrific mix of sweetness and gaminess.

Pop and pour. A little over 5 years from my last btl. On the nose: olive, salt, bacon fat, black raspberry...totally classic N rhone. On the palate: lovely acidity, maybe even a touch shrill, with crushed granite and black raspberry. Ok density, but good weight. Soft, finely grained tannin on the finish. Still very primary, but drinking well now.
