MICHELE OGIER 2003 BELLE HELENE COTE ROTIE
WINE ADVOCATE 91 POINTS - "The 2003 Cote Rotie La Belle Helene reveals excessive amounts of toasty new oak, some unresolved acidity, a big, chewy mouthfeel, and dry, hard tannin in the finish. It appears somewhat disjointed, but full-bodied with plenty of potential, yet enough questionable features to raise reservations about its ultimate equilibrium. We will not know for 5-6 years. It should keep for 15-16 years."
