Score 88/100 · Drink 2001-2012, Robert Parker, Feb 2001

The impressive, dark ruby/purple-colored 1998 Cote Rotie Les Becasses offers aromas of black olives, smoke, bacon fat, and cassis. This medium-bodied, fresh, tart but concentrated Cote Rotie can be drunk now as well as over the next 10-12 years. Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847) 604-89000
