La Landonne 2007

The 2007 Cote Rotie la Landonne is another wine that's drinking beautifully today. and this forward. supple character is trait of the vintage. Revealing a perfumed bouquet of smoked beef. tapenade. currants and pepper. it's meaty and gamy. with full-bodied richness and ample. yet sweet tannin. While it won't really hit maturity for another 5-6 years. it certainly dishes out plenty of pleasure now. but will still see it's 30th birthday in fine form. (JD. 9/2015)
