Lovely stuff but once again

This is notably ripe with a completely different aromatic profile that is distinctly floral and sauvage along with plenty of earth nuances to the dark berry fruit liqueur suffused nose

all wrapped in a subtly stony and sneaky long finish

This is slightly bigger and richer than the Champlots with equally good punch to the middle weight flavors that exhibit citrus and saline nuances on the persistent if not especially complex finale

Jean-Michel Gerin, Cote Rotie Champin Seigneur Vintage:2010 Lovely stuff but once again(includes roughly 10% viognier), Bright purple. Aromas of candied dark fruits, cola and woodsmoke, with a spicy overtone. Brighter red fruits appear on the palate, which offers an array of spicy berry flavors, seamless texture and very good energy. Finishes spicy and sweet, with a late note of violet and excellent focus. Josh Raynolds
