2020 Guigal Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline", Rhône Valley, France

ABOUT THE WINE

La Mouline is Guigal’s celebrated single-vineyard Côte-Rôtie from the Côte Blonde. 89% Syrah is joined by 11% Viognier, bringing floral lift to a wine known for its silky texture, dark fruit and spice. Sorting is strict, completed manually, followed by fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel vats. Extraction is completed with traditional remontage. Long maturation in French oak builds depth and structure while preserving the vineyard’s aromatic character. A special bottle for roast lamb, duck or richly flavored mushroom dishes.
