Patrick et Christophe Bonnefond Côte-Rôtie 2006 burgnudy along high scents of sandalwood"The 2006 Cote Rotie's dark ruby garnet color is followed by a sweet bouquet of creosote, burning embers, black cherries, cassis, and a hint of toasty oak. Dense, medium to full bodied, impressively concentrated, pure, and long, it should drink well for 10 15 years. This small, 14 acre estate is one of the finest in Cote Rotie." Robert Parker, 90 points
