The florality of this wine is striking. From there, you move to the smoky herbs, grilled meat, black with red cherries and thyme. Vibrant, fresh, and energetic, with a pop in the red fruits on the palate, and a lick of salt that comes in at the end, about 1 hour of decanting should do the trick. Drink from 2023-2040. 2,382 Views Tasted Sep 12, 2023A beautiful expression of La Turque, with its smoky, licorice, cherry, earth and flowery nose. Full bodied, vibrant, energetic and fresh, the wine is concentrated, deep, polished, long and complex. This is great now and it's going to be even better in a decade. 3,940 Views Tasted Oct 22, 2015Hello old friend, it seems like it was ages ago since I last tasted you. Dark in color, rich, sweet, intense, young, fresh, concentrated, full bodied and deep, the floral dominated nose delivers the goods and the long, impressive, mouth filling finish leaves you wanting for me. 3,523 Views Tasted Mar 9, 2014Perhaps more air, or bottle age would have helped this wine. It was a good Cote Rotie, but not a great La Turque. The wine was a bit on the beefy, masculine, tannic side of the style range, lacking the often exotic, ostentatious style it's known for. I just looked at my other recent notes and they do not seem like the same wine. Perhaps it was a minor storage issue along the way. I'm more than open to trying it again. 3,715 Views Tasted Mar 18, 2013Bacon fat, pepper, kirsch, black cherry, violets and smoke create the nose. On the palate, the wine is fresh, intense, pure, refined, polished, powerful and elegant. Starting to come around, a few more years will help soften the wine while adding more levels of complexity. 4,086 Views Tasted Dec 19, 2012Coconut, black pepper, bacon fat, pepper, plum, floral, licorice and cassis scents popped from the glass. Layers of juicy black fruit, stone and spice fill your palate with plush sensations. The plum, dark cherry and spicy blackberry finish remains in your mouth for over 40 seconds. 4,947 Views Tasted Aug 24, 2010Rich, exotic and powerful. Black fruits mixed with herbs, spices, flowers and more explodes from the glass. The palate is gently coated with wave after wave of ripe, unctuous juice. The finish last over :40! 95 Guigals are a little brighter than other years with slightly elevated acid levels. This is not a bad thing, it's just a stylistic difference from more hedonistic years like 88, 91 or 97. 4,989 Views Tasted Aug 6, 2007This wine took the best of La Landonne adding it to La Mouline and created the wine of the vintage for Cote Rotie! 4,592 Views Tasted Feb 14, 2005 |
