Fans of elegant Côte-Rôtie long ago caught on to Bernard Burgaud's graceful, low-oaked wine (he makes only a single bottling) and while lighter vintages like 2014 here are almost always approachable soon after release, they are also balanced to age. Burgaud himself favors such years because "they showcase the elegance of wines here, not the power of the southern part of the northern Rhône." These are high-altitude plantings in a cool region, he points out, so getting richness requires harvesting on the late side "and risking getting raised fruit and dry tannins."

While both the 2014s and the 2013s from Burgaud will age well, Bernard told me that "the '13 is the one you'll want to have the most patience with." Burgaud's Côte-Rôtie is a deceptively cellar-worthy wine that ages nicely on its balance, and I think many people underestimate it because it never shows forbidding tannins or overt structure. It’s one of the most immediately accessible wines of the appellation and rarely goes through a dumb or sullen stage, even in years like 2005 and 2010.
