The gleaming ruby-hued wine has been attentively fermented in a combination of aged stainless steel and oak barrels, resulting in a fine-tuned harmony of acidity and fruitiness, underpinned by a robust tannic structure. Revel in the scintillating amalgam of blackcurrant, raspberry and spice, balanced with smoky and earthy undertones. The husband and wife vintners, Maryline and Christophe Billon, have a reputation as meticulous and innovative performers in the region's wine industry, a fact evident in each bottle of Cote Rotie Les Elotins 2016 they produce. Experience their dedication with this wine, an emblem of their exceptional viticulture. |

Wine Advocate (95)The largest cuvee (20,000 bottles) is the 2010 Cote Rotie Classique, Stephane Ogier’s “greatest vintage to date.” Seventy percent of the fruit comes from their holdings on the Cote Brune. It boasts a dense purple color along with a sweet nose of asphalt, licorice, forest floor, blackberries, cassis and bouquet garni, sensational concentration and sweet tannins. The structure, freshness and minerality suggest another 3-4 years of cellaring may be beneficial. It has 25 years of potential evolution. |
