Steady red robe. Mulberry, simmered red berry aroma with a near garrigue and herbs presence, cut hay. This bounds out with an open, free run red fruit, garden berries, on the palate, comes with sweet spots en route. It isn’t fully fused between nose and palate; it is still quite chalky on the second half of the palate, and ends on graphite, rockiness. Its juiciness is well assured, and it can tidy up the links in the chain with time

Reviews

The nose has a complex array of fine-ground eastern spices, strong cardamom, fine dark chocolate, ripe black cherry and plums. There's even some liquorice. It has a neatly composed and elegant feel on the palate; it really flows long, rippling with spicy flavors and a smooth, dense and creamy finish.
The 2012 Côte Rôtie Château d’Ampuis is a bigger, richer wine that offers full-bodied richness and a broad, expansive style on the palate. Black raspberries, toasted spices, cured meats and licorice all emerge from this incredibly sexy, complex and nuanced Côte Rôtie, and my notes finish with “wish I could drink a glass.”
