點擊次數：1827

The full-bodied 2010 Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde was co-fermented with 10% Viognier. Flowery, marmalade, raspberry, cassis, licorice and roasted herb aromas jump from the glass of this rich, dark, brooding, impressively built effort. This outstanding 2010 will benefit from several years of bottle age and drink well for 10-15 years. As I wrote last year, the Vidal Fleury enterprise, which is in large part a negociant business owned by the Guigal family and run with considerable precision by Guy Sarton-de-Joncquey, seems to be going from strength to strength with a bevy of wines offering some of the most reasonable prices of any Rhone Valley negociant. Both Guigal and Vidal Fleury consistently produce excellent rose wines. Last year, the 2010 GSM, a Southern Rhone cuvee that is bottled early to preserve its freshness and fruit, was introduced. Vidal Fleury has also done exceptionally well with their selections from Vacqueyras. Cote Rotie has always been one of Vidal Fleury’s specialties and they have done exceptionally well in 2010 and 2011 with the Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde as well as the limited production, single vineyard offering, La Chatillonne.
