Peppery to start but mellows out into more of a spicy berry thing. I now get cote de rhone. Delicious — 9 years ago

1991: Trusting the makeshift neck tag. Reticent nose, yet full delivery on palate. Book smart Cote Rotie, with everything you'd expect present. The youngster of the night, yet in welcome company. No hurry to drink, will continue to develop. — 10 years ago
Loving this Cote du Py gamay! Perfect way to start the evening in NYC — 11 years ago
Beautiful aged Cote Rotie from a half bottle. Juicy dark clue fruit up front and center. On first pour had some acid and tannins which rounded out nicely after 30 min in the decanter. 1999 vintage. — 9 years ago

Pronounced nose of vanilla, cedar, blackberries, black cherries, black pepper. Some meaty notes. Med + body, intensity, tannin, med acid. Long finish. Complex, beautiful now and many years from now. — 10 years ago

'88. actually traditional ... has all Cote Rotie elements turned to 11, somehow in balance. And then something more. Structured, ethereal, persistent. — 11 years ago
Poured w/ homemade pulled pork pizza. Delish. A touch stinky. Juicy. Just damn fun. Held up to the jalapeño, and made the pork even more succulent. What else do ya want for 15 bones? — 12 years ago
