100 Points

Friday, January 9, 2009 - Uncorked DK does Northern Rhône - Guigal, Chave, Chapoutier and more (Premisse, Copenhagen): Dark red with slightly light and brown rim. Very sweet and intense - almost aetherial - nose with roasted coffee, tobacco, black tea and dried flowers. In the mouth there is enormous intensity, but also a lightness married to both bredth and depth. Notes of licorice, tar, herbs and pitch black berries. It appears seamless and with a stupendously long aftertaste. I gave the Mouline 100 almost instantaneously, but this kept growing on me as well and I had to surrender after 10 minutes of profound praising of the wine on my part.
