• Tasted by Joe Czerwinski in 2022: "Again a forward sample blended from multiple barrels, the 2020 Cote Rotie Les Journaries (labeled Maestria outside the U.S.) is a blend of fruit from La Landonne and Côte Brune. It is rich and tannic, even chewy, with plenty of concentration, but it is also fresh and fruity, with vibrant notes of purple raspberries and exotic spices. It should be great, it just needs 5+ years.
