La Mouline 2009

Just as good. but made in a completely different style. the 2009 Cote Rotie la Mouline (which incorporates a whopping 11% of Viognier) offers an insane bouquet of roasted meats. toast. spice. caramelized meats. coffee bean and deep. concentrated and layered blackberry and cassis-styled fruit. As with the 2010. it has off-the-chart richness. a stacked mid-palate and a gorgeous polish to its tannin. Give it another 3 to 4 years and drink it over the following 2-3 decades. (JD. 8/2014)
