Michel & Stéphane Ogier Côte-Rôtie La Belle Hélène 2009 is a full-bodied red wine from the Northern Rhône Valley. Stéphane Ogier joined his family`s wine business in 1997. Having overseen a complete renovation of the cellars and introduced several new cuvées, Ogier is now considered among the finest producers in the Northern Rhône. The domaine`s La Belle Hélène cuvée is produced from the Côte Rozier and La Landonne lieux-dits. The 2009 is available here in magnum format. "The 2009 Cote Rotie La Belle Helene is another perfect wine. Made in a completely different style than the more structured, mineral-laced 2010, the 2009 is a flamboyant, exuberant effort with nearly over-the-top ripeness and fruit. However, it is extremely supple, sexy and bursting with complexity, revealing notes of truffles, graphite, black raspberries, espresso roast, spice box, tapenade and bouquet garni. The wine’s richness, full-bodied, massive fruit impact and 50-second finish are amazing." 100 points, Wine Advocate, 2012
94 Vinous
Opaque purple. Deeply pitched aromas of cherry pit, blackberry, licorice and woodsmoke. Broad, palate-coating dark fruit flavors show liqueur-like depth and power, with by slow-building minerality providing lift. Very rich but surprisingly lithe, with strong finishing thrust and harmonious tannins that add grip. This impressively powerful, well-balanced wine should age slowly.Josh Raynolds1st March 2012
