As in 2012 and 2015, Stephane released a boxed set of single vineyards in 2013. The 2013 C?te R?tie Viallière is another wine from Stephan that excels in the vintage. The parcel for this cuvée comes from the upper portion of the Viallière lieu-dit, and it’s almost at the bottom edge of Grandes Places. It has terrific complexity in its black raspberries, smoked blackcurrants and mineral-driven, meaty personality. Medium to full-bodied, silky and elegant, with the higher acidity of the vintage and present tannin, it's not going to hit prime time until around 2023, and should have 10-15 years of prime drinking after that.
