Vignobles du Monteillet Fortis 2001 £35.00
Dazzling, intense, less austere than its neighbour Hermitage, Cote Rotie produces some of the world's greatest Syrah'' (Decanter). Ancient vines, tiny yields and one of the region's most dynamic young winemakers Stephane Montez - make this big, powerful, rare Rhone Syrah a terrific buy.
