"The flagship 2019 Côte Rôtie La Mordorée offers a brilliant, spicy, full-bodied style that carries loads of black raspberry and mulberry fruits, notes of toasted spice, flowery incense, and camphor, building, ripe tannins, no hard edges, and serious length. This brilliant, youthful, sexy Côte Rôtie in the making will offer pleasure with just short-term cellaring and keep for 20-25 years."

14%Abv "One of the top Chapoutier Côte Rôties I've ever encountered, the 2019 Cote Rotie la Mordorée offers up complex notes of violets, mixed berries and delicate dried herb nuances on the nose. It's quite floral, yet there's a concentrated, full-bodied core of fruit that's neither dense nor muscular, but silky and lush. Blended from a parcel in La Côte Blonde and another in La Côte Brune, this is simply a joy to drink, with a long, tannic-yet-silky finish. It should easily age well for up to two decades.”
