"A wine that continued to blossom with time in the glass, the 2005 Cote Rotie la Mordoree offers classic notes of raspberries, cured meats, dried violets and spice in a medium to full-bodied, elegant, seamless package. Full-bodied, concentrated and layered, with more olive and gamey flavors on the palate, drink this beautiful effort anytime over the coming two decades."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The northern Rhone's most prestigious red appellation, producing perfumed, elegant Syrah, often co-fermented with a little Viognier, from steep terraced slopes.
