Expert Reviews
Notes of green bell pepper, spices, pepper, iris, violet and dark berries introduce the 2020 Côte-Rôtie La Landonne, a full-bodied, concentrated and structured wine with a multidimensional core of fruit, lively acids and deep mid-palate underpinned by a chassis of firm tannins. Concluding long and spicy, it will demand some patience.
Dark as a moonless night, the knockout 2020 Côte-Rôtie La Landonne gradually unlocks its broad complexity, offering up prominent black pepper, graphite, cured meat and iodine notes as well as smoky blackberry jam and a touch of licorice. What’s so striking about this La Landonne is the flawless marriage of elevated flavor concentration with abundant freshness, depth and finesse. Firmly framed by a tight tannic core, the full-bodied 2020 is a modern-day legend.
Barrel sample. Very much closed at the time of tasting, this showed great power on the palate, very tannic, but with finesse. A distinctly spicy style of La Landonne which was difficult to read at time of tasting but will likely score between 94- and 96-points post-bottling. 100% whole bunch.
