Côte-Rôtie, Côte Blonde--Vintage 2001
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: René Rostaing
Tasting note: A wine of great intensity and lushness with no hard edges is the dark ruby/purple-coloured 2001 Côte-Rôtie Côte Blonde. Sweet aromas of caramel, honeysuckle, black cherry liqueur, raspberries, currants, and subtle notes of toasty oak are followed by a plump, well-textured, opulent finish. I adore this cuvée of Côte-Rôtie, and its a shame more is not produced. Anticipated maturity: now-2014. Robert Parker. Wine Advocate #147 (June 2003)
