the Barruol Lynch Cote Rotie La Doree can’t help but exude earthy hints of leather and spice and everything nice
spring blossom
and perfumed violets building toward a finish full of energy
subtle herbs and a touch of caramelized nuts
it is full-bodied with a great balance
Geoffroy Rose de Saignee Premier Cru Brut, Champagne, France NV 1.5L Petits Chateau the Barruol Lynch Cote RotieDerived from the 2013 vintage and disgorged in March 2019, the latest release of Geoffroy's NV Extra Brut Ros de Saigne Blanc de Rose is showing nicely, offering up scents of crisp apple, rye toast, red berries and cherries. Medium to full bodied, chiseled and precise, it's seamless and textural, with a notably elegant, fine boned profile by the standards of this habitually vinous, broad shouldered cuve. 93 Pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
