GUIGAL LA MOULINE: The Velvety Icon of Côte-Rôtie
E. Guigal’s “La Mouline” is the original and most celebrated of the estate’s single-vineyard “La-La” trilogy. Sourced from the steep, sun-drenched Côte Blonde, this wine is a masterclass in elegance, combining the power of Syrah (89%) with the aromatic lift of Viognier (11%) in a co-fermentation that yields an unmatched silky texture.
Tasting Profile & Critical Acclaim
- Color: Deep, brilliant ruby red with vibrant crimson highlights.
- Nose: Intensely perfumed, offering an exotic blend of floral notes (violet, jasmine), ripe red and black fruits (raspberry, blackberry), spicy oak, and savory hints of roasted meat and olive.
- Palate: Full-bodied, plush, and multi-dimensional. The mouthfeel is exceptionally velvety and layered, showcasing concentrated fruit seamlessly integrated with fine, sweet tannins. It’s an opulent yet refined wine with a persistent, mocha-laced finish.
Pairing & Serving Suggestions
This is a collector’s wine that demands a spectacular culinary partner. Decant for 2-3 hours before serving at 62-65°F (16-18°C). It promises magnificent evolution over 15-30 years in the cellar.
