  • The most sensual of the Guigal “La La” trio, La Mouline comes from the Côte Blonde, where schist and granite soils produce wines of perfume and finesse. Some of the vines here are over 90 years old, co-planted with a small percentage of Viognier that’s fermented together with Syrah, adding lift and exotic aromatics. The Guigals ferment with long macerations, then age the wine for around 40 months in 100% new oak barrels. The 2017 is opulent yet graceful, showing violet, raspberry, cassis and spice layered over mocha and smoke. Silky in texture, it’s the most approachable of the trio in youth, but still capable of decades of ageing.

  • "Saturated violet. Ripe, spice- and mineral-tinged red and blue fruits, incense, vanilla and strong violet notes are highlighted on the exotically perfumed nose. Sappy, penetrating and lively on the palate, showing impressive delineation and spicy lift to its blueberry, kirsch, floral pastille and cola flavors. Distinctly lively in character, especially in the context of the vintage, finishing with impressive power, polished tannins and echoing spice, mineral and floral notes. As usual, this wine was aged for 42 months in new French oak barrels that were coopered at Guigal." 97 points, Josh Raynolds Vinous.com
