Is it really fair when a wine rated 95+? is a bit of disappointment? Yet I confess that’s how I felt upon tasting Rostaing’s 2019 Cote Rotie la Cote Blonde—perhaps a victim of my own overly high expectations? It was a bit closed on the nose, only to explode with vibrant red raspberries and cherries in the mouth. Full-bodied, concentrated and plush, with a long, mocha-tinged finish, it did begin to show a bit more aromatic range and complexity as it sat in the glass, so perhaps I’m being too tough on it.
