This sports some ripe black cherry, bitter plum and black currant fruit flavors allied to a bolt of cast iron through the middle, while mesquite, bay leaf and savory notes scurry about. Shows lots of energy and detail on the finish, with the cast iron edge extending lengthily. Should cruise in the cellar.

Producer
Domaine Guigal
Three generations of the Guigal family have worked on this plot of land in the Côte-Rôtie that is over 24-centuries-old. As one of today’s most famous wine producers in France’s northern Rhône, the Guigal Estate was created in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in the village of Ampuis. His son Marcel took over the maison in 1961, expanding the family’s vineyard holdings. He also simultaneously bettered their overall reputation. Marcel was named Decanter Man of the Year in 2006, while his son, Philippe now acts as the operating oenologist for the domaine. The E. Guigal brand represents a rather broad collection of wines from the Rhône Valley, as the largest producer in Côte-Rôtie the firm also works as a négociant, buying grapes for some of their labels. Their three single-vineyard Côte-Rôtie productions, La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque stand out worldwide as consistent red models from the appellation. E. Guigal also offers a large lists of other wines, the dense and concentrated Hermitage, the refined St. Joseph, as well as the famous Condrieus, just to name a few.
