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

Rhône.
u. 1 cm. scraped, peeling & marked 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 MOULINE 2003 (2)

Rhône.
u. 2 x 1 cm. 2 x scraped, wrinkled & marked labels. 2 x vintage label falling off.

A desert island wine (as is just about any top vintage of the cuvee) and a gorgeous showing, the 2003 Cote Rotie la Mouline is drinking beautifully, yet is still young, loaded with fruit, and possesses over-the-top richness. Giving up notions of plum, liquid flowers, potpourri and smoked meats, this puppy is full-bodied, massive and layered on the palate, with a stacked mid-palate, thrilling amounts of texture, and a blockbuster-styled finish. There’s nothing classic about it, but it’s still as good as it gets. August 2014 WA 100
