Herbaceous nose, cherry and mint on the nose.
Velvet mouth feel, thin at first with some disjointedness in the tapestry of tastes: powdery tannins, rich mature fruit, lasting acid.

2000 Tapestry McLaren Vale Shiraz. Elegant and restrained. Black cherry, bramble fruit with hints of mint, dusty earth and leather. What a find in the bottom of the cellar! — 12 years ago

Deep Berry flavors. Dense and extracted for the vintage. Really like the fruit deliverance that is like silk tapestry. — 11 years ago

This wine is stunning, in the same way that encountering a beautiful stranger can take your breath away. The nose draws you in with subtle layers of dried flowers, anise, Italian plum, forest floor and juniper berries. This rich, complex tapestry continues on the palate, the texture every bit as elegant as the nose. Polished tannins and structure that could easily carry it another 20 years in the cellar, but still fresh and vibrant today. Crushed stone, dried herbs and bay leaf. Pair with wild boar. — 11 years ago

La Mouline proved to be my second favorite of the three Guigal La La's. All three are 100-point wines from the 1999 vintage. La Mouline is, dare I say it? The most feminine of the trio. It also contains the largest percentage of Viognier blended into Syrah. It makes perfect sense that this liquid masterpiece should boast vibrant floral notes, violets, black cherry and blackberry tart, vanillin and star anise. Pure sensuality on the palate, ribbons of flavor and texture create a rich and decadent tapestry in the mouth. The finish is long and seamless, with white pepper and cassis notes. Pure magic. — 11 years ago

8.5/10. An ever changing tapestry from opening to finishing; of berry, leather, tobacco and vanilla. Enjoy! — 12 years ago
