DOMAINE ROSTAING
Côte Rôtie 'Côte Brune' 2023
- 96 points -
Very soft, generous, enveloping tannins, with violets and rose, blackberries and raspberries. Has good concentration and ripeness. It's a bold, rounded style of Côte-Rôtie with great freshness and tension to the structure. Long, grippy and tannic, it has an assertive, edgy and fresh nature to the tannins. This will need a long time. Four weeks in tank, 18 months in oak (limited new), natural yeasts, and as many stems as possible.
