COTE ROTIE, LA TURQUE 1999 GUIGAL |

Côte Rôtie, La Turque 1999 Guigal In 3-bottle original wooden caseA really kirsch nose. Real grip and gumminess on the palate. Very leathery at the end, with a tarry heart to it. At the moment, I give it to La Mouline and La Landonne, but who knows in the future? That is the fascination of these three amazing wines. A recent bottle had an incredible vanillin-scented, cassis nose. Terrifically vibrant, swarthy, juicy fruit and tannin wine. What a monument.
