In addition to the standard lineup (Village, Reserve, C?te Blonde, Lancement and Belle Helene), Stephane has started releasing a boxed set of his single vineyards. Tasting through these is one of the most educational things a reader could do when trying to understanding the diversity and complexity of the appellation of C?te R?tie. These are released in tiny quantities, so I’ll keep the notes brief, but don’t miss a chance to try these wines. Starting with what’s normally the most feminine and forward of the lineup, the 2015 C?te R?tie But de Mont is surprisingly masculine, meaty and smoky in 2015, and offers medium to full-bodied richness and a beautiful elegance on the palate.
