Community Tasting Note

dream Likes this wine:

Saturday, May 3, 2014 - A beautiful but firm La Mouline that still needs time. Not as wild and complex as the '85 enjoyed earlier this week but rather more tame and refined and perhaps in need of further aging. Still, this is gorgeous juice with wonderful deep flavors of black raspberries, smoky meats, baconfat, gunflint minerals and pepper. Strong acids buffer the fruit here leaving the wine so fresh and captivating at 26 years of age. Great complexity on the long finish as always seems the case with this bottling at 25+ years of age. Anyone who says Guigal's La La's are not reflective of their terroir simply hasn't tasted them with enough age.
