All of Yves Gangloff’s 2016 Côte-Rôties were still aging in their component barrels when I visited him in early March. He walked me through many of them but final blending was still a few weeks away. Based on what I tasted (not to mention the success of the Saint-Joseph, which I was able to taste in its final form) this looks to be as successful as any vintage that I have tasted here. Gangloff’s style has become more refined and his wines more delicate and finely etched in recent years. As Gangloff said, 2016 “is a vintage that favors finesse, tension and detail”, which plays directly into the winemaking direction that he has been taking.
