Tuesday, May 17, 2022 - Guigal's wines from the Côte-Rôtie with Philippe Guigal (Zoom): Wine 1 of 6. A blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 8% Mourvèdre, and 2% Counoise & Muscardin. 15.5% ABV. Glass staining dark ruby colour. Ripe red and dark fruit, ripe raspberry, black currant, blackberry, dark chocolate, complex herbal and spice notes, and some smoke, with good acidity in the context of the wine's ripeness, ripe, very round tannin, and superb length. Finishes lightly dry (not drying). Very supple. The alcohol is well contained. The quality of the tannin stands out.
