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

Robert Parker

RP 100
"Still backward, but beginning to throw considerable sediment and reveal some amber at the edge, this wine reveals a distinctive, violet, cassis, bacon fat aroma intermixed with smoked duck and Asian spice components. Extremely full-bodied and sturdy, with noticeable tannin, this husky, powerful, concentrated La Mouline is less seductive than many vintages. In fact, in 1983, it behaves more like La Landonne. It can be drunk, but ideally it requires another 4-5 years of cellaring. Many 1983s have proven less exciting than initial predictions because of the refusal of the harsh tannins to melt away, but the tannin is clearly falling away in the 1983 La Mouline. There is still a wealth of fruit remaining." -Robert Parker

"Very very deep colour. Very gloriously complete. Bonfire smell, spicy, exotic, complete. Absolutely no drop in the middle palate. Dangerously volatile. Dances rather than sings."
