Description

René’s vineyard fervour and favoured use of 600 litre demi-muid casks which don’t stamp too much wood flavour onto the wine, result in some of the region’s most concentrated and sought-after Côte Rôtie. His Cuvée Classique is a blend dominated by the produce of La Viaillère that always shows a hallmark refinement and juiciness. His La Landonne is typically muscular and backward when young that after 8+ years develops into a whole spectrum of savoury meat and hedgerow fruit flavours. However, his flagship wine, Côte Blonde goes against the grain of the widespread clichés about the effeminacy and delicacy of Côte Blonde wines. Although it does benefit from the floral effects of the 2-3% Viognier added to the blend, its density and concentration requires a barrel maturation longer than the others and at least ten years bottle age is needed before it is approached.

The 2005 Cote Rotie Classique, of which there are 17,000 bottles, possesses a deep ruby color to the rim and a beautifully sweet nose of raspberries, ground pepper, a touch of spring flowers, and hints of licorice and spice. The wine is beautifully open, but then in the finish the tannins kick in, but they are sweet and unobtrusive. This is a beauty of elegance, finesse, and richness. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.
