Another elegant and finesse-driven beauty that makes the most of the vintage is the 2014 Cote Rotie Domaine des Pierrelles. Spiced meats, olive tapenade and sweet raspberry fruit give way to a medium to full-bodied, layered, silky Cote Rotie that?s ideal for drinking over the coming decade or so.

A wine of real concentration, intensity, power and finesse. It delivers a strong dark plum and liquorice nose with striking floral accents, subtle baking spices, cola nuts and graphite. The palate has a gentle edge of gun smoke across bright, concentrated red plums and black cherries, while the tannins push smooth and even. This has some time ahead. Best from 2020.
