Domaine Yves Cuilleron Terres Sombres Cote-Rotie 2005 (750ML)

Inky violet. Powerful cassis, mulberry and candied plum scents are accented by exotic oak spice and tobacco. Full, deep and sweet, showing ripe dark fruit flavors and rich chocolate and espresso tones, and finishing with rounded tannins and outstanding length. A big guy, but with impressive balance too. - IWC(91-94)
