"From arguably the most famous lieu-dit in the southern portion of the appellation, the Duclaux brothers' 2018 Cote Rotie Maison Rouge is a showstopper. Scents of violets, stone fruit, anise-like spice and mixed berries combine to create a complex nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is concentrated yet supremely silky, smooth and charming, ending long and elegant. It's a superb example of the generally softer, more elegant style found around Tupin et Semons." - Wine Advocate
