Hand-picked. Crop is entirely destemmed. Only free-run juice is vinified in concrete tank. Aged in 225l oak barrels for 14-18 months.Producer Tasting Note:Violet aromas, raspberry, predominant spices, a touch of black olive and “tapenade”, rosemary. On the palate, it is ample, elegant, very well-structured and balanced. It is a wine full of elegance, of rare concentration, with a distinguished palate. La Mordorée combines the floral aromas of the Côte Blonde with the darkness of the Côte Brune. The result is a remarkably powerful wine with good tension and density. A very elegant Côte Rôtie.Critics’ Tasting Notes:”A blend of old vines in the lieux-dits of Côte Brune and Côte Blonde, the 2016 Cote Rotie la Mordorée shows a bit of cedary oak up front (it spent 18 months in 30% new barriques). It’s full-bodied and ripe on the palate, with herb-tinged red fruit notes that show mammoth complexity and a fine, silky, long finish” Drink 2020-203595\/100 points, Joe Czerwinski, WINE ADVOCATE, October 2018″Gorgeous smoke and toast on the nose, with a charred black fruit character. The oak is very prominent, giving strong clove scent which the dense black cherry fruit just can’t match at this stage. Formidable stuff!” Drink 2020-203417\/20 points, Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, November 2017This is a very steep, terraced vineyard located on the border of the “Côte Blonde”. The soil is composed of chlorite and ferruginous mica-schists in loess depressions and earth veins. This is made from 100% Syrah (no blend with viognier). The 70 years old vines produce tiny yields. This is an ample, elegant, very well-structured wine. The aromas develop into earthy and smoky notes typical of a great Côte-Rôtie.Food Match: Drink with small game such as pheasant or duck, tender red meat dishes in a red wine sauce, or soft cheeses.Cote Rotie La Mordoree Chapoutier 2016\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45135630631094,"sku":"59611","price":37.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/coterotielamordoreechapoutier2_59611_01_46f02057_926dd1ab-6f06-4596-a9db-51c7abfea77d.jpg?v=1779274744","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/coterotielamordoreechapoutier2016-59611","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
