93 WA. "Mocha, roasted coffee beans, plums, graphite and grilled herbs wrap around the palate as the 2010 Cote A Cote shows off its undeniably appealing personality. Firm yet well-integrated tannins frame a long, creamy finish endowed with substantial length. The late harvest style of the vintage comes through nicely in this attractive, mid-weight offering. In 2010, the blend is 42% Grenache, 34% Syrah and 24% Mourvedre." Wine Advocate #202, Aug 2012 |
