1983 E. Guigal Cote Rotie La Landonne - 98 Pts!

E. Guigal is one of the most notable wine producers in the Rhône Valley. It was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis, a village near the famous roasted slopes of the Côte Rôtie,with a long history of winegrowing, and today has plots throughout the Rhône. Guigal makes wines from classic Mediterranean varieties like Grenache, Mourvèdre, Viognier and Roussanne, although the focus has always been on Syrah and Côte Rôtie.

The company's sizeable holdings run the length of the valley, encompassing Saint-Joseph, Hermitage, Gigondas, Condrieu and Chateauneuf-du-Pape, making wines in each, as well as a couple of Côte du Rhône wines. However, Guigal's most notable wines – La Landonne, La Turque and La Mouline – are all from Côte Rôtie, and are some of the most sought-after wines in the region. In fact, all three have had 100-point Robert Parker scores for multiple vintages.

Rating RP98 - This murky purple/garnet-colored wine offers up an exotic nose of tea smoked duck licorice truffles and earth. Extraordinarily concentrated and almost too rich to be called a beverage this viscous compellingly endowed massive La Landonne remains 5-7 years away from full maturity. The wine possesses excruciatingly high tannin in the finish but awesome levels of extract and glycerin.
