About this wine
E. GUIGAL La Turque, Cote-Rotie
Côte-Rôtie La Turque is sourced from the fringes of the Côte Brune, tussling with the whiter edges of the Blonde for dominant geological pickup across a confluence of schist, clay and limestone. Here, there is more weight, intensity, less Viognier and assertive tannins that build steam across a rich finish nourished with beef bouillon, lilac, star anise and spiced charcuterie. Yet the fruit touches each side of the red and darker spectrums. A Janus that looks one way while glimpsing the other. This is the paradox that defines the complexities at the heart of the world’s greatest wines.

Jeb Dunnuck
The 2019 Côte Rôtie La Turque reminds me slightly of the 2010, which at a recent tasting I thought was the greatest young wine I had ever tasted. The 2019 reveals a saturated purple hue as well as insane aromatics of bloody blue and red fruits, roasted meats, iron, ground pepper, and graphite, with perfectly integrated background oak. With full-bodied richness as well as a deep, layered, multi-dimensional mouthfeel, it has building tannins, flawless balance, and a finish that won't quit. This is an absolutely legendary Côte Rôtie in the making. It deserves 7-8 years of bottle age and will see its 30th birthday in fine form.
