Left Rhone

This is a must-know producer, primarily because they produce about 1/3 of the AOC’s wines through both contracts and their own holdings. They are also hugely important for the historical reasons mentioned above. With their “La La’s” – the three single vineyard wines they release called La Landonne, La Turque and La Mouline – they have produced vintage after vintage of monumental wines that have won top praise in the international press.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 90
"Like many northern Rhones from this vintage, the 1985 regular cuvee has always been a deliciously ripe, round, precocious-tasting wine, with a concentrated, creamy texture, and smoky bouquet. The amber edge and round, sweet fruit suggest full maturity. Drink it up. Mature now."

Wine Spectator

WS 92
"Full and generous, a peppery, spicy wine that's sweet with the scents of vanilla and black cherry. Long, silky and rich, with the structure and tannic bite to age. Should improve even more in the bottle."
