Description:

M. ChapoutierCote Rotie La Mordoree1991
Northern Rhone
u: both at 3cm, damp and wine-stained labels
"In the same class as the great single-vineyard Cote Roties made by Marcel Guigal (i.e., La Mouline, La Turque, and La Landonne),La Mordoree is most akin to La Mouline in its seductive, otherworldly fragrance and layers of sweet, expansive, velvety-textured fruit. There were 400 cases made of this saturated purple-colored wine. Its huge bouquet and spectacularly rich, layered personality offer an astonishing example of what low yields from a naturally farmed vineyard and an unfined, unfiltered winemaking philosophy can achieve." R. Parker for TWA, 100 pts. 01/97
2 magnums
Estimate $500-700
