The 2000 Cote Rotie Les Grandes Places reveals more graphite, creme de cassis, blackberry, and earthy aromas. With airing, scents of Asian spices and new saddle leather also emerge. Medium-bodied, structured, tannic, and closed but promising, this 2000 will be at its peak between 2007-2015.
The president of the syndicate of Cote Rotie growers, the young, dynamic, and talented Jean-Michel Gerin continues to build a strong following for his progressive, modern-styled, barrique-aged Cote Roties. Gerin’s 2000 Cote Roties are extremely successful (he eliminated 60% of the crop through severe pruning and grape cutting in the vineyard). Like all his wines, they were bottled unfined and unfiltered.
