Marie et Pierre Benetiere, Cote-Rotie Cordeloux, 2011
A cult, hard-to-find Cote-Rotie from a traditionalist prized for bringing Burgundian finesse to Northern Rhone Syrah. Pierre Benetiere builds Cordeloux from northern Cote-Rotie fruit, nearly all Syrah with a touch of Viognier, fermented with whole clusters and aged with little new wood so the perfume and detail come through. Quantities are tiny and the bottles rarely surface. The 2011, a vintage of balance and freshness across the Northern Rhone, leans red-fruited and graceful, showing the lifted, elegant side of this address. Decant and enjoy it for its perfume.
