WTN: 2013 Coudert Tardive

Opened my first bottle of 2013 Clos de le Roilette Fleurie Cuvee Tardive last night and it showed all the depth and layers that the wine usually does. It also gained plenty of that depth - as well as tannic structure - over several hours of air.

I wouldn't say it was a brooding or closed wine, but some will probably want to hold onto this for a while until that structure resolves more. Regardless, it's delicious.

Excellent! I have most of a case of the 2010 lurking in the cellar. It was rather tightly wound and not much fun after a brief window of opportunity on release.
