Hi all. My friend is in town and we’re going to Backbone in Monrovia for dinner. Dinner will be Steaks.
I’d like to drink a Cote Rotie, but fear that drinking any of these would be infanticide even with a proper decant. Any thoughts on the below?
• 2022 Bernard Burgaud Côte-Rôtie
• 2021 Bernard Levet Côte-Rôtie La Chavaroche
• 2018 Rene Rostaing Côte-Rôtie Cuvée Classique Ampodium
I also have the below, which I’m considering:
• 2020 Domaine de la Grange des Pères Pays d'Hérault
• 2022 Pax Syrah Sonoma Hillsides
Much appreciated.

Cote Rotie doesn’t really have infanticide issues because Syrah can be so explosive aromatically out the gate. Plenty to enjoy even very young.
I’d probably pick the Granges
Agree with the other comment, I’m probably going for the Granges
