Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline" 2018 - E. Guigal

Cette Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline" est l’un des crus les plus emblématiques du Domaine GUIGAL.

Seulement quelques flacons sont issus chaque année de cette vigne située au cœur de côte blonde.

En bouche une texture voluptueuse et soyeuse, intensément aromatique.

Une bouteille de collection !

98-100/100 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate : Outer quote mark The 2018 Cote Rotie La Mouline is immensely seductive, offering up enticing notes of floral potpourri and red berries on the nose. Those strawberries and raspberries persist onto the full-bodied palate and through the long, lush finish, buoyed by supple, creamy-textured tannins. This is the most complete, compelling vintage of La Mouline I've tasted. Inner quote mark (2/2022)

97-100/100 Jeb Dunnuck : Outer quote mark Scheduled to be bottled early in 2022, the 2018 Côte Rôtie La Mouline is a blockbuster of a wine offering full-bodied aromas and flavors of black raspberries, cassis, spring flowers, espresso, and violets. Coming from a steep, terraced, warmer terroir and fermented with 10% Viognier, it’s always the sexiest, more exotic, and seamless, as well as approachable, of the flagship releases. The 2018 will unquestionably pure a smile on your face as soon as it’s released, but it will ideally be given 7-8 years of bottle age and drunk over the following 30+ years.

96-98/100 Vinous : Outer quote mark Expansive aromas of ripe red and blue fruits, potpourri, incense and smoky minerals pick up an exotic nuance as the wine opens up. Broad and seamless on the palate, displaying sharp delineation to the sappy, mineral-inflected black raspberry, boysenberry, candied violet and spicecake flavors. Shows a distinctly suave character and finishes extremely long and appealingly sweet, with discreet tannins framing lingering blue fruit liqueur and floral notes. (JR) Inner quote mark (5/2020)
