Jean-Michel Gerin Les Grandes Places (Côte-Rôtie)
This is quite young, yet it's easy to see all the promise the wine displays with its rich layers of black raspberry, smoke, kirsch and licorice. On the palate, the rich wine is soft, lush and round, leaving you with a lasting impression of sweet dark red berries, spice, earth and freshness. 2,138 Views Tasted May 15, 2014 |
