Côte Rôtie La Mordorée, Maison M. Chapoutier 2014

Tasting Notes

On another level, the 2014 Côte Rôtie La Mordorée is a perfumed, incredibly layered and even sexy 2014 that has lots of black raspberry fruits, flowers, potpourri, and spice aromas and flavors. It’s a deeper, richer wine than the Les Bécasses, has solid mid-palate depth and sweet tannin. It will drink well for at least a decade. 2016 - 2026

Another wine that defies the more mid-weight style of the vintage, Michel’s 2014 Côte Rôtie La Mordorée sports an inky purple/blue color to go with jammy, ripe, sexy aromas and flavors of black olives, crushed violets, as well as black and blue fruits. Thick, full-bodied and thrillingly pure, it should be approachable on release yet also evolve gracefully.
