Jasmin, Cote Rotie Giroflarie Vintage:2018 after which it should last

after which it should last for 7-8 years

the 2013 has it all

The sweet fruit returns on the aftertaste

reflecting its cool-sited vineyards in the north of the region

with no trace of overripeness

Jasmin, Cote Rotie Giroflarie Vintage:2018 after which it should lastGlistening violet. Smoke and mineral accented cherry and black raspberry scents are complemented by suggestions of tobacco, violet and cracked pepper. Silky in texture and lively on the palate, offering gently sweet dark berry, cherry compote and floral pastille flavors firmed by a spine of juicy acidity. The spicy note returns on an impressively long, penetrating finish that shows very good clarity and subtle, fine grained tannins. Josh Raynolds
