    (95% syrah and 5% viognier, from granitic soils in the Cote Blonde): Bright violet color. Pungent dark berry, violet and olive scents are lifted by zesty mineral quality. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, with spicy cassis and bitter cherry flavors accented by a strong jolt of cracked pepper on the back half. A smoky, bacon-y nuance comes up on the finish, which is given grip by smooth, well-knit tannins. This textbook Cote-Rotie drinks surprisingly well for a 2010, especially with a little decanting.

Region

Côte Rôtie

Only a red wine appellation, Côte Rôtie is the most northern of all Rhône appellations and is produced mostly from Syrah, although Viognier may contribute up to 20% of the blend. Its terroir is divided into two categories. Côte Brune's soil is comprised of iron-entrenched granite giving thesoil a rich red-brown colour. As a result, it creates wine of notable power and concentration that usually needs time in the cellar to soften and develop. Heading south down the slope towards Condrieu, one encounters Côte Blonde, an area comprised of decomposed schist and mica that is lighter in colour and tends to produce elegantly styled wine for earlier consumption (most of the area's Viognier is grown here). Many traditional producers of Côte Rôtie feel that their best wines are a blend of the two.
