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

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"A collection of stunning older northern Rhรดnes puts a strong exclamation point on this night of fabulous food, wine and conversation. Guigalโ€™s 1985 Cรดte-Rรดtie La Landonne is thick and sweet in the glass, with plenty of power and overall intensity. Although the fruit is super-ripe and voluptuous, there isnโ€™t quite enough richness to stand up to all the oak and tannin, which leads to a feeling of slight dryness on the finish." -Vinous

"Once again the darkest, thickest, most powerful, and formidably concentrated of Guigal's single-vineyard Cote Roties, the 1985 La Landonne is also the least flattering and most intimidating. Like its two siblings, it is throwing a hefty sediment, with the inside of the bottle resembling that of a 15-year-old vintage port. The color is still a murky, inky purple. The nose offers up aromas of beef blood, vitamins (iron?), minerals, smoke, and truffles. Extremely thick, full-bodied, and massive, with noticeable tannin, this monster wine reveals no hard edges, but it does possess teeth-staining extract and power. It is a remarkable effort!" -Robert Parker
