SINGLE VINEYARD COTE-ROTIE AND 'ERMITAGE EX VOTO FROM ETIENNE GUIGAL
Lying in Corsham, Wiltshire (Octavian)
Offered in bond, available duty-paid
E. Guigal, Côte-Rôtie La Landonne 2009
Rhône
Lots 342 to 347 in original wooden twelve-bottle cases, lots 348 to 350 in original wooden six-bottle cases, lot 351 in original six-bottle and three-bottle cases
Tasting note: Much more upfront and easy to read than the backward 2010, the 2009 Côte-Rôtie la Landonne is an insanely beautiful wine. Smoked meats, game, black olives, charcoal, black raspberries and pepper all literally soar from this beauty and it hits the palate with a massively concentrated, almost over-the-top decadence that's impossible to resist. Despite its wealth of fruit, it has a huge core of tannin and needs 4-5 years at a minimum. Like the 2010, it will have a half-century or more of longevity. eRobertParker.com Sep 2015 Drink: 2020 - 2059
