Rene Rostaing is one of the top producers of Cote Rotie in the Rhone valley. This is from his Languedoc winery also known as Domaine de Puech Noble. It is mostly Syrah with come Mourvedre and Grenache. Ruby/purple in color, mostly opaque and bright. The nose is sweaty/earthy with some black raspberries and black cherries. Soft texture. Medium tannins. Medium bodied. On the palate, black cherry fruit. This seems past prime based on this bottle and needs to be consumed. It will be better with food. Meatloaf would be a good pairing.
