(from vines in Les Longecourts that are a minimum of 70 years old and see 100% new oak)

This was a scorching-hot vintage

There is a really lovely inner mouth perfumed to the equally spicy and pure largebodied flavors that possess excellent mid-palate density and simply superb focus on the hugely long finish

Based on 90% Syrah and a whopping 10% Marsanne

Patrick & Christophe Bonnefond, Cote Rotie Roziers other_regions_australia (from vines in Les LongecourtsNice black pepper and leather notes alongside the fresh black plum character. A well structured and rather elegant Cote Rotie that is still rather young, the impressive tannins at the generous finish needing a bit of time to mellow. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
