Drank a trio of 91 La La for Christmas dinner. Started with the La Landonne, which had a touch of sour on the finish. A great wine, that on its own would have been a treat. It really responded to air, and developed well over a couple of hours. The La Turque took things to a new level, simply an awesome wine. Total bacon fat, smoke, and very full throttled. The La Mouline presented very similar to the La Turque, very bacon and smoke, with a touch less opulence. All were great, but the La Turque and La Mouline were stunningly good.

If an award is ever offered for the most consistent 100 Pt wine ever made, clearly, 1991 Guigal La Mouline is at the top of the list to receive it. With a nose packed with smoke, flowers, black raspberry, bacon fat. spice, pepper and kirsch liqueur, it's impossible to pull away from the glass. But the real fireworks take place on the palate, with the exotic, sexy, lush, textures and the seemingly, endless, fresh, spicy, cherry finish. This is bottled decadence.

The colour is deep and compact. Almost black.
And the fragrance of this wine fill up the room and knock me out! Meaty, bloody and spicy (french herbs). After a while in the decanter the wine offers tobacco, fennel, bouillon and leather ... and even a hint of asphalt.
The tannins are peerless! They just melts in the mouth. I find this wine to be in perfect balance. The length is remarkable and goes on for over a minute. It has an inherent energy that amaze me and it create sheer magic on the palate. Great minerality (crushed stone). Great structure, it reminds me of a movie-star back in the days - Sophia Loren. Tall, dark beauty with a remarkable carriage. The taste is meaty, bloody and peppery. And the wine leave salt, leather and tar in the aftertaste.This wine is a star!

Wonderful nose of ash, morels and dark forest fruits. Intense and persistent with a deep cassis core. A real treat!

Beautiful perfume, powerfully elegant, minty and electric nose but showed too much brett for some in the crowd (i.e., Doug). On the palate this was rich, silky smooth and mature, showing broad, mature fruit that has a nice peppery element. Dense bordering on viscous. On the mid-palate and finish, however, this was a touch clipped, and consistently so across both of the two bottles opened. The nose was simply beautiful... made up for anything else.
