Lot 139 Details
E. GUIGAL CÔTE-RÔTIE LA LANDONNE 2003 (1)

Rhône.
u. bn. scraped & peeling label.

The 2003 Cote Rotie la Landonne continues to blow me away every time I taste it and it's a desert island wine for me. One of the stars of this extreme vintage, it offers sensational levels of fruit and decadence, perfumed, intense aromatics, beautiful freshness and a to-die-for texture and finish. Still youthful, with masses of sweet tannin, it's nevertheless a heavenly drink today. Issue Date: September 2015 WA 100

E. GUIGAL CÔTE-RÔTIE LA TURQUE 2003 (2)

Rhône.
u. 2 x 1 cm. 2 x marked labels.

I’ve always loved the 2003s from the Guigal family and the 2003 Cote Rotie la Turque has yet to ever disappoint. An incredible perfume of smoked herbs, charred meats, violets, licorice and blackcurrants gives way to a huge, unctuous, powerful Cote Rotie that has masses of ripe, sweet tannin, full-bodied richness and a finish that just won’t quit. Enjoy this heavenly elixir over the coming 2-3 decades. Drink 2013-2046 WA 100
