"One of my favorite vintages for this cuvĂŠe, the 1990 CĂ´te RĂ´tie CĂ´te Blonde boasts a ruby hue as well as killer kirsch liqueur and darker berry fruits intermixed with olive, smoked game, and assorted meaty aromas and flavors. Perfectly balanced, seamless, and straight-up sexy, this magical CĂ´te Blonde is ready to go and Iâd wager best drunk up, but what a beautiful bottle."

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.
