The 2010 Cote Rotie Cote Rozier’s dense purple color is followed by a tight wine with layers of fruit, a deep, concentrated, structured mouthfeel, good acidity and a more virile, macho style than Les Rochains or Colline de Couzou. This powerful 2010 possesses super concentration. Give it 3-5 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 15+. (Not yet released)Bonnefond’s four cuvees of Cote Rotie are exceptional in 2010 and brilliant in 2009, although they are made in contrasting styles. The 2010s are minerally, with higher acids, but no shortage of ripeness or flavor intensity. The 2009s represent full blast hedonism at its finest. They are rich, concentrated, fleshy wines with lower acidity and shorter longevity, but with a far broader window of drinkability.Importer: Europvin; www.europvin.com
