Score 89/100 · Drink 1996-2016, Robert Parker, Oct 1996

Ogier's 1994 Cote Rotie is one of those elegant, finesse-styled wines offering an intense seductive, sexy, smoky, bacon fat, and cassis-scented nose. The wine hits the palate with a delicate, sweet ripeness, enough crisp acidity to provide definition, and a medium-bodied, well-knit personality. A slight shortness in the finish kept this wine from meriting a higher score. Readers should not be surprised if it fills out over the next several years, elevating my rating. It will offer attractive drinking now and over the next 12 years. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
