Subtle vanilla, cedar and cocoa notes from extended oak ageing weave through each cuvée without overwhelming the fruit.\n\nOn the palate, all three wines are full-bodied and exquisitely structured, but with distinct personalities. La Mouline is the most seductive and silky, its Syrah (with a touch of Viognier) showing layers of raspberry, cherry, sweet spice and graphite over ultra-fine tannins. La Turque is concentrated and opulent, offering dense blackcurrant, plum, licorice, pepper and smoked bacon wrapped in velvety yet firm tannins. La Landonne is the most powerful and age-worthy, with a more tannic backbone and savoury profile: think dark fruits, cured meats, black pepper, truffle and mineral notes carried by vibrant acidity. The 2015 vintage’s ripeness and purity promise decades of evolution in the cellar; these wines can be approached now with extended decanting but will really shine after 10–15 years, with top bottles easily lasting 25–30 years or more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe trio hails from some of Côte-Rôtie’s steepest and most storied slopes, rooted in poor, schistous and mica-rich soils that naturally limit yields and concentrate flavour. La Landonne, planted to 100% Syrah, comes from a south-southeast-facing terroir renowned for producing muscular, structured wines. La Mouline, one of the appellation’s oldest vineyards, is a terraced amphitheatre with mixed plantings of Syrah co‑fermented with Viognier, giving it its signature aromatic lift. La Turque sits on vertiginous slopes of dark schist, combining power and perfume. All grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness due to the terrain and Guigal’s rigorous selection. Vinification typically involves extended maceration and temperature-controlled fermentation to extract colour, aroma and tannin gently, followed by exceptionally long élevage in small French oak barrels—many of them new—for around 36–42 months.

La Turque’s rich, spicy profile makes it ideal with lamb—roasted rack, lamb shanks, or Moroccan-inspired lamb with spices—as well as game birds and truffled dishes. La Landonne, being the most structured and savoury, is a natural partner for hearty red meats: ribeye, côte de boeuf, venison, slow-braised beef cheeks or wild game stews. Serve at 16–18°C (around 60–64°F). For current drinking, decant generously—2 to 3 hours for La Mouline and La Turque, and 3+ hours for La Landonne—to allow the aromatics and texture to fully unfurl.

In the cellar, La Landonne is traditionally vinified as 100% Syrah, with long macerations to extract color, tannin and flavor, followed by an extended élevage – typically around 40 months – in new French oak barrels.

Blending powerful Syrah with a touch of aromatic Viognier, it captures both the depth and perfume that have made this cuvée a modern classic. From a challenging vintage, the 2000 La Turque stands out as a remarkable success, already drinking beautifully yet still capable of graceful further aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, the 2000 La Turque shows a deep garnet core with brick-tinged edges, reflecting over two decades of careful cellaring. The nose is complex and evocative, with layered aromas of espresso, Chinese black tea, dried plum, fig, blackcurrant, and subtle smoked meat, intertwined with hints of leather, cocoa, and sweet spice. The small addition of Viognier lends a lifted floral nuance and a touch of exoticism.\n\nOn the palate, this is medium to full-bodied, concentrated yet wonderfully poised, with silky, resolved tannins and a long, savory finish. Flavors echo the bouquet: dark berries, dried fruits, coffee bean, black tea, and a gentle gamey note, all framed by well-integrated oak and refreshing acidity. While it is drinking very well now, mature and harmonious, well-stored bottles still have the structure to evolve for several more years, rewarding drinking through the next decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLa Turque comes from a tiny, terraced parcel on the Côte Brune in Côte-Rôtie, where dark, iron-rich schist soils and a steep, south\/south-east exposure give intense, structured fruit. Vines are planted at high density and yields are kept extremely low, with harvesting done entirely by hand on the near-vertiginous slopes to ensure optimal ripeness and selection. The blend is predominantly Syrah with around 7% Viognier co-fermented, a traditional Côte-Rôtie practice that enhances aroma and texture. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats with extended maceration for depth and color, followed by a long élevage—typically around 40 months—in new French oak barrels, which contributes to the wine’s signature polish, spice, and ageworthiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis mature Côte-Rôtie is superb alongside refined, savory dishes such as roasted lamb with herbs, slow-braised beef cheeks, duck breast with a dark fruit reduction, or game birds with mushrooms and truffle. It also works beautifully with aged hard cheeses like Comté or older Gouda. Serve at around 16–18°C (60–64°F) to best express its aromatics. Given its age, decant gently for 30–60 minutes to remove any sediment and allow the bouquet to open, taking care not to over-aerate very fragile bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1946 by Étienne Guigal and based in Ampuis, E. Guigal has become the reference point for Côte-Rôtie and one of the most influential producers in the Rhône Valley. Under Marcel and Philippe Guigal, the estate elevated the appellation’s reputation worldwide, largely thanks to its trio of single-vineyard wines—La Mouline, La Landonne, and La Turque—collectively known as the “La-La” wines. These bottlings regularly earn top critical acclaim and are considered benchmarks for Syrah-based wines, showcasing meticulous vineyard work, precise winemaking, and a consistent pursuit of excellence that has shaped the modern image of the Northern Rhône.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guigal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54252851134801,"sku":"PS-8006081511624","price":353.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/LA_20TURQUE_c5aaf843-dfa2-4cf4-a49c-446a1ba1c234.png?v=1783447318"}],"url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/collections\/e-guigal.oembed?page=3","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
