The Grenache-based 2009 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Laudun Chateau de Bord exhibits vivid aromas of sweet and sour cherries intermixed with tobacco leaf, forest floor, ground pepper, Christmas fruitcake and licorice. This medium-bodied, richly fruity, impressively endowed wine should drink nicely for 3-4 years. The Brotte family was among one of the first to estate bottle Chateauneuf du Papes in the early 1930s. Over recent years, under the guidance of Laurent Brotte, the grandson of the founder, Charles Brotte, quality has improved dramatically. Additionally, they have brought in the renowned consultant, Philippe Cambie. Brotte is still best known for their non-vintage, solera blend of Chateauneuf du Pape called La Fiole, which is a huge commercial success. The quality is very good in spite of the phoney dust or the twisted and bent bottle. All of the wines I recently tasted with Laurent Brotte are classy, well-made, high quality efforts. Brotte seems to go largely unnoticed in the American market, but that should change based on what they have been accomplishing over recent vintages.
