The 2005 Cote Rotie Les Rochains is a classic, backward effort that will require patience. Medium to full-bodied with notes of acacia flowers intermixed with cassis, tar, spicy oak, truffles, and licorice, it is a densely packed wine with impressive concentration and purity. Give it 3-4 years of cellaring, and drink it over the following 15.
