2019 Northern Rhone?

I’m guessing but think that would mean no hard edges; i.e. opposed to angular? As far as I’m concerned, JLL is gospel.

Likes the vintage, said some reputable producers forecast its reputation would be akin to 2015 more so than 2017/18

Liquidy!

solar seems to be a new word for northern rhones. what does it mean? ripe?

Bingo!

In this time of economic stress, maintaining liquidity is essential.

Drinking liquidy even more important!

Some 2019 N. Rhones offers are tricking in. Does anyone have any updates opinions on this vintage?

I still have no idea who this is, but admit to be someone ignorant and blissfully unaware of some of the board politics.

There is a lot of information on Jancis’s site. It reads like there is some good stuff about, but cote rotie was considered superior.

I am picking up 2013s and 2016s where I can. I find 2015, 2017, 2018, and I suspect 2019, all a little roasted and jammy for my palate.
