The densest, most concentrated and impressive offering is the 2004 Cote Rotie La Landonne. Aromas of Peking duck, bouquet garni, graphite, asphalt, blackberries, and charcoal soar from the glass of this full-bodied, dense, remarkably concentrated 2004. In a vintage where record-setting yields were the norm in the northern Rhône; this wine possesses a level of concentration that is hard to believe. It should drink well for 15 or more years. 95 Points, Robert Parker, 2009
