E. Guigal – La Mouline Côte-Rôtie – 2017
$498.00
Blend of 89% Syrah and 11% Viognier
Beautifully Blonde in style, with macadamia nut and tobacco notes to the raspberry fruit. Very fine tannins on the palate, good acidity, and there’s some density and body from the vintage and the Viognier. Good length, that’s elongated by a subtle mineral note and resinous aspect from the fruit and oak. Just a little drying note on the tip of the tongue. You can enjoy this now, but this will age well too. The oak regime is robust – 40 months in new barriques. It’s applied with skill and care, and is a strongly noticeable part of the wine. Lieu-dit Côte Blonde, from the Blonde side (gneiss bedrock). Decanter – 96
