Les Becasses

2006 Cote-Rotie Red Blend

M. Chapoutier Les Becasses is a remarkable red blend from the prestigious Cote-Rotie region, showcasing a deep crimson hue indicative of its rich character. This 2006 vintage offers a full-bodied experience, harmoniously balancing high acidity that delivers a refreshing lift to its robust profile. The fruit intensity is pronounced, featuring flavors of blackberries and dark cherries, intertwined with subtle hints of spice and earthiness that reflect the terroir of the region. Tannins are notably firm yet well-integrated, providing structure and aging potential, while the overall dryness of the wine enhances its sophistication and food-friendliness. This exquisite offering is a true testament to the craftsmanship of M. Chapoutier and the exceptional qualities of Cote-Rotie.
