2019 vintage notes
97 points Jeb Dunnuck: "There are 100 cases of the 2019 Syrah La Cote Rousse, a beautiful, ripe, incredibly complex Red Mountain Syrah. Coming all from the WeatherEye Vineyard and not destemmed, its ruby/purple hue is followed by a great nose of ripe blackberries, cherries, dried herbs, lavender, and herbes de Provence. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and balanced on the palate, it has terrific tannins, a balanced, layered mouthfeel, and a great, great finish. The only downside is the miniscule production."
The 2019 La Côte Rousse could be the most exotic and profoundly aromatic La Côte Rousse ever. A deep, dark purple core leads out to a magenta rim, with an intense and immensely complex bouquet. Fresh blueberry, blackberry and red raspberries, peach skin and lavender explode from the glass with graphite, cedar, jasmine tea and rose petal emerging with air. The palate brings vibrancy and richness, with cacao nibs, marionberry and orange zest adding layers to the full-bodied frame. The finish lingers around a mouthwatering mineral essence and is lengthy and elegant. Absolutely delightful, this is a stellar example of what makes WeatherEye so exciting.
2017 vintage notes
Us: Aromatic fireworks, lifting right out of the glass and straight into your happy-making senses. A cascade of red and black raspberries have a wonderfully savory-salty accent that hums through the finish, grabbing morsels of smoke and cocoa for the ride. An underlying structure, more like a shadow, adds weight to what is already a textural beauty. - Marcus
