Cote Rotie Cuvee du Plessy Gilles Barge 1999

750 ml Syrah Rhône, France 1999

Cote Rotie Cuvee du Plessy Gilles Barge 1999 is a dry, full-bodied red from Syrah (Côte-Rôtie, France), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are firm and acidity moderate; oak influence is some. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 27-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened. Good with lamb, beef stew, steak, venison.
