Pierre Benetiere Cordeloux
| Vintage: | 2016 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Pierre Bnetire applied his learnings from world-famous Georges Vernay and is now crafting some of the most old-school, hard-to-find Cte-Rtie on the market. A unicorn producer, his holdings consist of a few organically farmed acres on vertiginous terraces.Cordeloux comes from a ~3.5 acre plot climat named Corps de Loup in the southern part of Cte-Rtie. Expect incredibly highly perfumed and densely concentrated notes of blackberry, boysenberry, and blueberry to lead the charge, with olive tapenade, smoked meat, leather, damp violet, stems, and underbrush to follow. Rock-like minerality (crushed granite, turned earth) and slight pepper and spice round it out. The palate is deep and layered with simultaneous finesse. Its a beautiful wine, medium-plus bodied with layers of fresh black and blue fruits accentuating the finish. |
