Marie et Pierre Benetiere, Cote Rotie Cordeloux Size:6x750ml This warm-vintage expression does notOpaque ruby. The nose displays fresh blackberry and bitter cherry scents, along with notes of candied flowers, star anise and cured meat. Nervy and precise on entry, then fleshier in the middle, offering juicy dark berry and cherry pit flavors and a touch of licorice. The nicely focused finish is framed by silky, even tannins.
