Order wine La Turque 2010 - Guigal
Cote Rotie - Guigal
100/100 Parker
Cellaring : Drink now or cellar until 2050.
Tasted in 2016 by Jeb Dunnuck : " The 2010 and 2009 continue to blow me away every time I taste them, and for me they represent the pinnacle of Cote Rotie - albeit in very different styles. The 2010 Cote Rotie la Turque is a much more masculine and edgy wine that deserves to be kept. Its inky black colour is followed by classic notes of smoked meat, scorched earth, liquorice and ample black fruits. Big, rich, tannic and structured, don't think about touching the bottles until at least 2020..."
