Description

Cote Rotie 1991
La Mouline, E. Guigal
3ltl, 1nl, owc
Bottle (12)
"The black/purple-colored 1991 La Mouline appears to be a perfect wine in the making, with a staggering bouquet of violets, bacon fat, sweet cassis fruit, and toasty oak. The wine exhibits superb density. It is tasting even richer and more concentrated than it did during its first several years of life. With 8% Viognier in the blend and made from extremely low yields (only 400 cases produced), it is a phenomenal wine." (100pts Robert Parker, Rhone Book #B3, Jan 1997)

“The 1991 Côte-Rôtie La Mouline is more exotic on the nose than the La Landonne, leaning more towards red fruit with traces of lavender, inkwell and curry leaf. Where it really comes into its own is in terms of structure, as if borrowing the tannins from a Richebourg, exerting more grip with immense depth and mineralité on the finish. It coheres magnificently with aeration and clearly possesses the most sapidity of the three single vineyards. Magical.” (97 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2023)
