Nez assez exubérant aux notes lardés, un peu fumé, poivre blanc. En bouche c’est très structuré, chaque lampé apporte des saveurs différentes, viandé, cote floral avec la violette, poivré, un peu d’herbe, thym. C’est soutenu par une bonne acidité, finale est longue et gouleyante! Belle récompense apres la semaine de travail! — 4 years ago

Tasted blind. Amber tawny, not too thin. Northern Rhone nose, very exotic. More specifically you can guess Cote-Rotie on this wine just from the nose. Notes of black fruit, graphite, gravel and what my wife would say is dirty socks. Guessed 89 La Turque, which (looking back) is a complement to how well the 61 performed today. — 5 years ago

A Cote rotie in VdF clothing. You can see the original sticker ghosted in the background when they didn’t get paperwork in to the AOP in time. Plenty of olive and bacon aromas. Ripe fruit on this 2015. — 3 years ago

Reddish tawny, Translucent. Medicinal nose. Slate, bacon fat, cherries some menthol. Rich and powerful. Silky. Long finish. Everything you want in a Cote-Rotie. At peak and in a perfect drinking window. — 4 years ago

1990 Guigal Cote Rotie La Turque. Decanted 2 hours prior. Prob would have been better if we decanted 1 hr before. Nose was amazing right upon decanting, but flattened out after 2-2.5 hours. Amazing. Drink now. — 4 years ago

I don’t drink Northern Rhône enough, but this terrific single vineyard Syrah crafted by the late, long-time Latour cellar master Denis Malbec is for sure nothing like new world Syrah.
The nose was filled with fresh dark cherry and raspberry, and turned to parades of cedar, fresh herbs, vanilla, dried mushroom, and light smoked hays. Slight hint of dried rose petals too. On the palate it had a richer feel than the nose would indicate. Dark spices and earthy minerals with sharp acidity. Polished tannins. — 5 years ago
