Levet, Cote Rotie, La Chavaroche 2010 Napa Valley sandy tannins

sandy tannins

Punching way above its weight and a superb showing for this modest Chateau

Drink over the near term and serve with a light chill

all wrapped in a very firm and impressively long finale

Medium-to full-bodied with supple tannins

Levet, Cote Rotie, La Chavaroche 2010 Napa Valley sandy tannins96 Points CellarTracker Deep dark cherry red, slightly beginning browning color. Beef stock, smoked lard, red berries. Beautiful developed aromas wafting from the glass, nuanced, developing time wise. On the palate an elegant Cte Rtie unfolding with time, blueberries, suitably framed tannins, the palate mirroring the aromas coming from the glass. After some hours acidity comes a bit more to the fore. 3 2 2024 94 points Int'l Wine Cellar Inky ruby.
