RHÔNE FROM GUIGAL
E. Guigal, Côte-Rôtie La Turque 1985
Rhône
In twelve bottle original wooden case. Two slightly damaged capsules. Good appearance. One faded vintage neck label. Levels: four 1cm and two 2cms below base of capsules.
Tasting note: The debut vintage for this wine was especially impressive in view of the fact that the vineyard was so young. The 1985 La Turque's color remains a dark purple, with no signs of amber or lightening. The nose explodes from the glass, revealing scents of jammy black fruits, licorice, lead pencil, and smoke. Sweet, thick, highly concentrated flavors contain enough acidity and soft wood tannin to give the wine a well-focused feel. This prodigiously endowed, rich wine should continue to evolve and offer accessible drinking for another 15+ years. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate Rhone Book, January 1997.
