Description
Robert Parker: I have followed the Fonsalette Cotes du Rhones sincethe mid-1960s, and it is a candidate for one of the finest andlongest-lived Cotes du Rhones in nearly every top vintage. EmmanuelReynaud has made a wonderful 2007 that displays terrific Provencalcharacter with large quantities of kirsch, lavender, licorice,roasted herbs and some pepper and meatiness. It is medium tofull-bodied, relatively evolved for a Fonsalette, but don't letthat confuse you, because this wine will age for 10-15 years at thevery minimum.The current releases of Fonsalette include the 2007 and 2008 Cotesdu Rhone, as the 2009s will not be released until next year, andthe 2010s the year after.
