Lastly, the 2019 Côte Rôtie La Landonne flirts with perfection and has a heavenly, textbook Landonne nose of smoked meats, woodsmoke, truffle, crushed stone, and assorted red and black fruits. It's powerful yet opulent, with velvety tannins, a beautifully layered mouthfeel, and one hell of a great finish. Count yourself lucky if you're able to latch onto any of these 2019s from Rostaing! This beauty will shine for 25-30 years if stored correctly.
Vinous
- v96
Inky, bright-rimmed ruby. Smoky, mineral-accented cherry, blackberry and floral scents, along with building floral and olive nuances. Shows excellent clarity and heft to its juicy red and dark berry, fruitcake and licorice flavors, which are underscored by a vein of juicy acidity. Delivers a suave blend of depth and vivacity and finishes impressively long and smoky, with dusty tannins adding final grip. Made entirely with whole clusters.
Wine Spectator
- ws95
Solidly built, with a core of dark and winey black cherry and black currant fruit flavors that meld steadily with hints of cast iron, pepper, bay leaf and warm earth, followed by a smoldering edge and some latent grip on the long finish. Needs some time to unwind fully. Best from 2024 through 2038. 400 cases made.
