  • From a steep parcel on the Côte Brune, La Turque reflects the darker, more muscular side of Côte-Rôtie. Vines grow on mica-schist soils with iron oxide, giving density and spice. Pure Syrah (with occasional trace Viognier), it undergoes Guigal’s hallmark long élevage in new oak. The 2017 is deep and powerful, with blackberry, smoked meat, black pepper and roasted coffee, framed by firm tannins and structure. A wine that balances richness with intensity, capable of 25–30 years of evolution.

  • "Opaque ruby. Displays seductively perfumed aromas of ripe, mineral-drenched black and blue fruits, incense, potpourri and exotic spices. Sweet, gently chewy and penetrating in the mouth, offering sappy blueberry, cherry-cola and floral pastille flavors, with smoky mineral and vanilla nuances. Shockingly lithe for its depth, this finishes wonderfully long and juicy, with velvety tannins sneaking in late." 97 points, Josh Raynolds Vinous.com
