Gaillard, Cote Rotie Brune Et Blonde Vintage:2003 the 2020 Saint Joseph Le

the 2020 Saint Joseph Le Clos Florentin is its customary elegant

menthol and liqueur-like black cherry aromas

round and generously proportioned medium weight flavors that seem as though there might be a certain heaviness yet the citrus-tinged acidity manages to save the balance

Opening in the glass with aromas of red berries

For a bortrytis Auslese this has very pronounced minerality that pushes the honeyed and tropical fruit aspects of the wine into the background

Gaillard, Cote Rotie Brune Et Blonde Vintage:2003 the 2020 Saint Joseph LeCS. Very deep colour and visceral in its appeal. Rich, sleek, full, opulent and dramatic. Good value.
