"Looking first at the 2014 CĂ´te RĂ´tie Terrasses, itâs a beautiful, classic effort that offers slightly darker fruits than the 2013 yet has a similar elegant, silky style. Black raspberries, flowers, spice, and a touch of minerality all emerge from this ethereally textured, vibrant, incredibly elegant 2014 that has loads of charm and character. Give bottles another year or two and enjoy over the following decade. These are the first releases Iâve tasted from vigneron Jean-Luc Jamet, who left the family estate in 2013."

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.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
