I think unquestionably the finest vintage of this cuvee to date, the 2015 Cote Rotie la Chatillonne Cote Blonde is a total powerhouse beauty that sports an inky purple color as well as fabulous notes of creme de cassis, licorice, graphite, black raspberries and crushed rocks. Possessing extravagant richness, a thick, unctuous texture, sweet tannin and a great finish, it should drink well for at least 10-15 years.

Showing a bit toasty and cedary at the moment, the 2015 Cote Rotie la Chatillonne Cote Blonde should come into its own in just a couple more years. It's medium to full-bodied with ample concentration, a fantastic, velvety texture and grace notes of vanilla and baking spices. It just needs some time to absorb its oak.
