Jean-Michel Gerin, Cote Rotie Landonne Vintage:2018 finish with mild dryness andGlass staining purple. A heady, complex bouquet suggests red and dark berry compote, sandalwood and cola, with a sexy note of Asian spices adding lift. Rich but lively, offering sweet black raspberry and floral pastille flavors braced by smoky minerality. Closes with subtle tannic grip, leaving blackberry and cherry cola notes behind. Josh Raynolds
