August 17, 2023 - WSET 2 group tasting (My place, Utrecht, NL): As this is the only “appalling” vintage in recent history, I’m really looking forward to my other LaLaLa’s. Despite the vintage, this was lovely. Bacon, black berry, meaty, cigar ash, a green note, fire stone. Medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins, medium finish

March 25, 2023 - Opened this after I found some wines were too “ok lah” for my guests. Glad to see this delivered as old Guigal usually do. Deep, complex nose with farmyard, beef blood, cranberries. Alrresting Syrah acidity keeping everything in place, melted tannins, long, deeply aromatic finish. That is why we drink old, high end French wine.

August 23, 2019 - Very nice bottle, olives, dark roses, lightly roasted meat, herbs and truffles, there was nice acidity and still vibrant fruits on the palate, texture was firm yet smooth. it performed very well from an off/weak vintage. Really enjoyed it

December 8, 2018 - tasted alongside 99 Gaja Sperss. This crushed it. Much more earthy and old world style
