“From a vintage called classic by winemaker Christine Vernay, the 2006 Cote Rotie Maison Rouge is a still youthful, layered, impeccably balanced red that reveals a healthy ruby color, notes of chocolate-covered black cherries, leather, wood smoke and spice, as well as medium-bodied richness and a layered, impeccably balanced profile. This is a beautiful, elegant and perfumed Cote Rotie to drink over the coming decade or more. Drink 2010-2026“ Jeb Dunnuck, Mar 2017
