Founded in 1946, Domaine Guigal is one of the most revered and unwaveringly consistent estates in the Rhône Valley and is often seen as a benchmark for quality Côte-Rôtie. The top three wines from Guigal are known affectionately in some circles as the La La’s, which is short for La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque. La Turque debuted in 1985 and is made from Syrah and Viognier (around 7%) from a single hectare of vines on the Côte Brune. Often with even greater density and tannin than its counterparts, La Turque is known for its richness and power. The 1989 release certainly lives up to that reputation with incredibly opulent black fruits and heady notes of woodsmoke, liquorice and olive tapenade.

The 1989 Guigal Côte Rôtie La Turque revealed a more linear, medium bodied personality, with attractive smoke, earthiness, herbs and sweet dark fruit. Antonio Galloni1st August 2007

Jancis Robinson

The 1989 La Turque's smoky, licorice, and black-raspberry aromas, as well as its phenomenal richness make for an extraordinary tasting experience. There is almost the essence of black-cherries in the 1989, which is already gorgeous to drink. It should be drunk over the next 12-15 years.

The wine spends 42 months in new small oak casks and is bottled without fining or filtration.

The 1989 single vineyard Cote Roties are magnificent. Now that they are three months away from bottling, their taste is reminiscent of Guigal's 1985s and 1982s. All of them possess fabulous concentration, sweet, expansive personalities. They offer extraordinary flavor intensity, impeccable purity, and awesome length and complexity. The yields from the three vineyards - La Mouline, La Landonne, and La Turque - rarely exceed two tons per acre. Moreover, no one harvests any later. That the wines spend nearly three and one-half years in 100% new oak tells you something about the level of extraction Guigal is able to achieve. While the oak is noticeable for 1-2 years after bottling, anyone who has tasted the 1985s, 1983s, 1982s, 1980s, or 1978s would be hard-pressed to find evidence of new oak. The level of fruit extraction in these wines literally soaks up the oak, making them all the more structured and complex. While all three wines share phenomenal concentration and marvelous perfumes, they could not be more different.

Benchmark for Côte-Rôtie excellence

Founded in the village of Ampuis by Etienne Guigal in 1946, Domaine Guigal is one of the most revered and unwaveringly consistent estates in the Rhône Valley, and is often seen as a benchmark for Côte-Rôtie Syrah. A pioneer of the single-vineyard concept in this appellation Guigal is best known for its top three wines, known affectionately as the 'La-Las', which is short for La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque – the domaine's top Syrah vineyards .

Other notable vineyards of this 75-hectare estate include La Doriane (the source of Guigal's Condrieu), Ex-Voto (used for Hermitage) and Vignes de l'Hospice (the source of one of Guigal's top St-Joseph Syrahs). All of these have become benchmark wines of their respective appellations. The Crozes-Hermitage appellation completes the roster of Northern Rhône estate vineyards.

Since 2006, Guigal has made a substantial investment in appellations of the Southern Rhône, using top-quality purchased fruit from trusted growers in Châteaneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Tavel and the Côtes du Rhône.
