Although slightly diluted, the 2000 Cote Rotie Les Rochains is a soft, easygoing, charming effort revealing hints of earth, red as well as black fruits, and oak. Spicy and well-made, but essentially one-dimensional and superficial, it should be consumed over the next 5-7 years. This moderately sized domaine (approximately 17 acres) has come on strong lately thanks to the talented Christophe Bonnefond.Importer: A Christopher Cannan Selection, various American importers including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel.
