Northern Rhone Tasting (Restaurant Brunnenstube, Beinstein): Unfiltered, medium garnet color. Clean, fully developed nose with some green, unripe notes (stems), spices. Deep, but not very appealing. On the palate dry, good acidity, a bit unbalanced. Some lovage, ripe, spices, green and harsh notes. Cool, some menthol, meagre. Medium length. Drink up, no potential. Certainly one of the weaker vintages. Better than the La Landonne. Drinkable, but a rather weak PQR. 89-90

This one is meat and one veg, all bacon fat and green bean. There some tar and a little coffee along with vinous sweetness in the mouth. It is pretty close to peak drinking and is an ok La Turque but not a great one.

Tasted alongside a Landonne of the same vintage. Distinct fruit, soft tannins, beautifully structured and very well made in a so called "lesser" vintage. More complexe than the Landonne. Short to medium length finish. Time do drink up.

my first la turque. Very good wine, but be careful with giving it to much air. For me it was good the 1st hour and then it faded.
