An elegant, seamless effort that borders on being mid-weight, the 2013 Cote Rotie Domaine des Pierrelles offers the textbook aromatics of raspberries, spring flowers, singed herbs and spice that are the hallmark of these steep granite/schist slopes located just outside of Ampuis. Coming from a tiny parcel of mica-schist soils located in the southern/Cote Blonde side of the appellation, it's medium-bodied, moderately concentrated, with ultra-fine tannin and an overriding pretty feel, it should drink nicely for 10-12 years.
