Notes of char, iron and tobacco leaf accent penetrating black-cherry and cassis flavors in this muscular expression of Cote-Rotie. Produced from 100% whole-cluster Syrah and matured twelve months in 30% new French oak, it's a weighty, intensely structured red framed by firm, gripping tannins, and a delicately earthen, meaty finish. While nervous in youth it should hit peak from 2023 and improve another decade still.
