Tasting Notes For Guigal Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde 2015
Marcel Guigal called 2015 “the vintage of a lifetime” and on par with 1929, 1947 and 1961, the anticipation while Guigal carried out their customary extended aging was almost too much to bear. From a vintage nearly as perfect as you could get, from vine dormancy right through harvest, the wines are spellbinding, with an utterly perfect balance of charm, complexity, and power.
Replenishing rain in the winter restored the water tables to supply the plants with nutrients, and then abundant sunshine and warmth helped the vines mature the berries to perfection as the generous diurnal shift maintained the acidity and freshness of the fruit. To buy, drink, age and, above all, enjoy as often as possible!
Dark ruby red. Exotic Spices, red berries and delicate oak aromas on the nose. On the palate round and supple tannins, and raspberry and blackberry flavors. A harmony of integrated acidity and tannins, both of which add aging potential, but even at an early stage are softened by long aging in oak.
