2010 blind tasting. Great bottle :) — 10 years ago
Bright ruby color with dark brambley fruit, toasted oak and graphite on the nose. Ripe dark fruit, black currant, blackberry, cedar and an undercurrent of black truffles. The finish is long and soft with hints of toffee, vanilla and white pepper. Balanced acidity and great tannin structure. — 11 years ago
Juicy, tightly wound, sprinkle of pepper. Excellent example of cote rotie from a great producer! - from magnum as well. — 10 years ago
1995 vintage. Meaty, earthy, liquorice, nettles and bracken. Medicinal notes. On the palate, much more white pepper. Quite plush blackberry and black plum. Very silky and textured. Good concentration. Fresh acidity. Good finish. Very enjoyable. Unfortunately in great company tonight. — 10 years ago

Probably past its prime, but, excellent structure and complexity. Let it open up, and the age is dispelled, leaving a wine that provides great length, and which evolves jn its tasting range. — 10 years ago
