Paul Jaboulet-Aîné : Domaine des Pierrelles 2023

The 2023 Côte-Rôtie Les Pierrelles makes its first impression with intense orange rind, crushed violets and dark cherry aromatics. Graphite dust adds more nuance. Medium-bodied and gently textured, the 2023 is a carefully shaped Les Pierrelles, letting the palate unwind with persistence on the ferrous finale.
