A decent Côte-Rôtie, but I feel the style of Guigal is somewhat hiding a bit of the roughness of the appellation. The wine is starting to get more secondary aromas, but it is still young. On day two the acidity and structure is coming more to the front of the wine. If you like Cote-Rôtie, there is no hurry. If you like Guigal, you will enjoy the wine now.

The color is show signs of development. But the wine is still young and fresh, with aromas of yellow fruit, rocks and a hint of oak. Not yet in the right spot for me, I would like the wine to get more deep and complex, and I belive it will in 2-5 years time. Still, nice to drink now.

Feels quite young and fresh, I was suspecting more nutty and developed character. No hurry to drink this.
