Guigal's La Turque 1994 is an exotic single vineyard blend of Syrah and Viognier.

Guigal is the finest producer in the Rhône's most northerly appellation, the Côte Rotie, which produces some of the Rhône's finest reds, and their single vineyard wines of La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque are amongst the most sought after wines in the world today.

Guigal's success is based on painstaking attention to detail, low yields, organic viticulture and little or no intervention in the cellars.

"The exotic 1994 Cote Rotie La Turque exhibits a dense purple color, and a fabulously-scented nose of licorice, Asian spices, truffles, minerals, and gobs of black fruits. Full-bodied, with great richness, a multi-layered personality, and an exotic, overripe character, this is a sensational, chocolatey, rich wine with more tannin than La Mouline." eRobertParker.com

"A masculine and muscular wine. Quite woody, an international style of Syrah that's appealing, seductive and polished, with supple, ripe tannins. The toasted oak dominates the fruit now, but this full-bodied red may well turn more harmonious with time as it has plenty of red and blackberry character to support all the wood. The finish is infused with lovely mocha, spice, toasted bread notes." Wine Spectator

"I have never seen a producer so fanatical about quality as Marcel Guigal." eRobertParker.com
