Friday, March 8, 2013 - This will be one tasting note for La Mouline, La Landonne and La Turque 1991. The Mouline is the most brick colored. The Turque the darkest. All three wines have a beautiful, complex and expressive bouquet with rustic smells, beautiful herbs and spices, smoke, bacon etc. The Turque has the most powerful bouquet. The Mouline the most ready and complex and the Landonne the most barnyard and also something not really fresh. On the palate the Mouline is beautifully mature with a great complexity; herbs and spices e.g. clove completely melted tannin and a great length. The Turque is also mature, but is the most powerful. Beautiful garrigue as well and also ripe red and black berry fruits and tannin with still a firm bite. Good bitterness in the finish and still a future of several years. Th Landonne is a sad story; just after opening it showed good acidity and tannin with a firm bite which was a bit drying in the finish, but after a few minutes, with just a little more airtime it became clear the wine really was corked. Overall the Mouline was the most elegant wine and the Turque the most powerful and both great, complex wines with great finesse! No score for La Landonne. I scored the Mouline 97 and the Turque 98.
