Rene Rostaing
Côte Blonde Côte-Rôtie Syrah
Côte-Rôtie, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
This is great. Young of course with some lovely dark fruit and a core of the blood/savory side of syrah. Tasted at Rostaing many years ago & the wine brings back memories.

2019 vintage. Big and brooding from being disturbed during hibernation. Medium-heavy body. Pretty nose and a smoking profile. Sexy in an earthy, grounded way. Decanted and tasted after 30 mins and 2 hours post-decant. Still super-tight but all the promise of pleasure is there for the long game/cellar. Focus and push for decades. Would like to revisit in five years. 7.30.23.
