M. Chapoutier Les Bécasses Rouge Côte-Rôtie 2015 - 75cl

Another superb wine by Michel Chapoutier, a Côte-Rôtie from the Côtes du Rhône Septentrionales, which presents us with a deep purplish red color, a nose with raspberry aromas, a touch of violet, a spicy dominance, a touch of black olive and tapenade, rosemary. On the palate it is full-bodied, deep, with a woody, spicy and vanilla finish. RP: 94 points

M. Chapoutier Les Bécasses Rouge Côte-Rôtie 2017 - 75cl

The raspberry and blueberry-scented 2017 Cote Rotie les Bécasses is produced mainly from purchased grapes, sourced across the entire appellation. It's firmed up a bit since last year but remains approachable, being medium to full-bodied on the palate and lined with silky tannins. Robert Parker: 91/100 Points

M. Chapoutier NEVE Rouge Côte-Rôtie 2017 (RP 97/100) 75cl

Jancis Robinson - 17+/20 "Biodynamic. Cask sample. Aged for 18 months in barrique and demi-muids, approximately 25% new. Black cherry and spice on the nose with very furry, brusque tannins. The structure will take a long time to soften. "

M. Chapoutier QUATUOR Côte-Rotie BIO 2016 - 75cl

Wine Advocate-Parker : 93/100 It's fascinating to see how the 2016 Cote Rotie Quatuor has evolved since last year, with dark, savory elements largely supplanted in prominence by notes of raspberry and cedar. A blend of four estate parcels, it's medium to full-bodied, with a supple, creamy texture and silky tannins on the tart finish.
