The 2004 Jean‑Michel Gerin Cote Rôtie Les Grandes Places unfurls in the glass with dark berry and black cherry warmth, threaded through with exotic spices and hints of violet and cracked pepper, and underpinned by a polished structure of gently gripping tannin and lingering deep fruit. It speaks of the northern Rhône’s disciplined power yet remains refined and sensual, a wine of luscious density and lingering elegance.
