Score 90/100 · Drink 2002-2016, Robert Parker, Apr 2002
The deep saturated ruby-colored 1999 Cote Rotie offers up sweet aromas of plums, cassis, and flowers. The wine is succulent, ripe, and heady, with plenty of fat and a seductive, low acid, rich style. It should drink well now and over the next 12-14 years. One of the newest stars of Cote Rotie, the 1999s from the Bonnefonds are the finest efforts I have tasted from this small domaine.
