2012 E. Guigal, Côte-Rôtie La Mouline - Côte Rotie - 2 Bottles (0.75L)
No. 94841663
Syrah (with a touch of Viognier), E. Guigal, Côte-Rôtie La Mouline, 2012, Rhône Valley, France
La Mouline is one of the most iconic single-vineyard wines from the northern Rhône, produced by the esteemed E. Guigal. This cuvée, predominantly Syrah with a small percentage of Viognier, is celebrated for its elegance, aromatic complexity, and aging potential.
The 2012 vintage presents a captivating nose of blackberries, violets, smoked meats, and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and silky, with fine tannins, remarkable depth, and a long, expressive finish. A quintessential example of La Mouline's finesse and Guigal's winemaking mastery.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: 97 points
"Possessing slightly more purity (but maybe not the complexity) than the 2011, the 2012 Côte Rôtie La Mouline offers a heavenly perfume of cured meats, Peking duck, violets, and cassis. This flows to a full-bodied, seamless, absolutely hedonistic Côte Rôtie with good acidity, ripe, polished tannin and a great finish." – Jeb Dunnuck
This collectible bottle from an excellent vintage is ideal for connoisseurs or long-term cellaring.
Stored in optimal conditions. Label and capsule in excellent condition.
