Cote-Rotie Les Rochins Garon

`Has a very serene, composed nose that bears gracious fruit across it, oily black fruits. Has a fleshy, outward facing debut on the palate – this is much more open than usual, and bears 1999 similarities. Rich, but not voluptuous, which is good. Touch of late tannin in it.` ****(*) John Livingstone-Learmonth
