Very dark, lush and alluring, this lets waves of Turkish coffee, warm ganache, melted black licorice, fig and plum sauce roll through while a light mesquite frame melds nicely along the edges. A tug of earth at the end keeps this grounded while the fruit pumps along. Best from 2021 through 2042. 90 cases imported.

Super-charming perfume here. Plenty of sweet spice and very fragrant, lifted, lighter red berries, white pepper and mocha. The palate has immense, rich, dark plums, boysenberries and black cherries with a super-fleshy core of ripe, red-plum flavors. Smooth tannins build to a firmer finish, it simultaneously offers commanding power with extreme finesse. This has a lot on offer but really needs some more time to settle in. The pick of the “La La” trio in 2014! Try in 2022.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
What’s the most fun a wine nut can have besides rooting around for something to drink in Robert Parker’s personal cellar? Well, drinking Guigal’s La La’s and debating which one is the most staggeringly amazing. Because they are. If you know, you KNOW.
We have a tiny pristine parcel, freshly arrived from France, and frankly we are drooling a bit. Such epic wines. 98 POINTS for the La Turque, 97 for the La Mouline and incredible pricing. We don’t know what else to say, frankly, these legends speak for themselves! Well, we should say...FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED...! All in stock and ready to ship, no pre-arrival nonsense!
About the Producer
The Guigal Estate was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis, a small ancient village and cradle of the Cote Rotie appellation. It shelters a unique vineyard where the vines and wines have been famous for 2,400 years. Arriving in 1924 at 14 years old, the founder vinified 67 harvests in Cote Rotie and, at the beginning of his career, took part in the development of Vidal-Fleury establishment. His son Marcel began working with his father in 1961, and today, Marcel's father Philippe is now the winemaker.
