Notes: Robert Parker 87-90/100, Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 14.5/20
"The modern style of the classic 2011 Côte Rôtie presents lots of toasted oak aromas, with an elegant note of raspberry, Christmas fruitcake, and spices. Fruity and medium-bodied, in a delicious style. Best enjoyed within the first 7 to 8 years." (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
