Delas Freres - Cote-Rotie 'La Landonne' - 2020

Dark Purple. A  highly complex bouquet evokes ripe black and blue fruits, incense and potpourri; olive and exotic spice nuances build in the glass. Offers palate-staining cassis, bitter cherry, olive, licorice and violet pastille flavors that show superb delineation and a spicy snap of cracked pepper on the back half. Closes extremely long and smoky, with repeating mineral and floral notes and gripping tannins that build steadily. 96-97 Points, Josh Raynolds, vinous.com
