Why We're Buying

Greatness is commonplace for M. Chapoutier Côte Rôtie La Mordorée. The syrah from the northern tip of the Rhône Valley has plenty of charm with a firm concentration of black fruit flavors. Give this red wine a few years of cellaring to unlock its full potential.

Deep purple-colored, the 2017 Côte Rôtie La Mordorée (a mix from the La Côte Brune and the Côte Blonde lieux-dits) is another incredibly concentrated, yet elegant and ethereal wine from Chapoutier. Rock star levels of kirsch, black raspberries, spring flowers, smoked game, tapenade, and graphite give way to a full-bodied, rounded, straight-up sensationally textured Côte Rôtie. It has the opulence to drink well now yet will keep for two decades or more.
