Côte-Rôtie, La Landonne--Vintage 1988
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: E. Guigal
Tasting note: Made from 100 Syrah from the Cote Brune, La Landonne's color is nearly black. A true blockbuster, it is a massive, almost impenetrable wine, which, with cellaring, is marked by aromas of smoked game, spicy nuts, saddle leather, and a roasted black fruit character. It is a wine with extraordinary power and forcefulness, as well as more acidity and tannin than Guigal's La Mouline. La Landonne requires 10-15 years of patience. Most observers who have had a chance to see all the vintages of La Landonne since its debut in 1978, agree that it is a wine with 30-40 years of longevity. The beginning of the new century would make an appropriate date for pulling the cork on your first bottle. The Wine Advocate Issue 84. December 1992
