1993 E. Guigal "La Landonne" Côte-Rôtie
RP
Wine Advocate
Review Date: 10/1997The great glories of this house are its Cote Roties, of which there are now five separate offerings... Nevertheless, the single-vineyard wines have turned out well...The most tannic of the three famous single vineyards is the 1993 Cote Rotie La Landonne. It is amazingly powerful and rich for the vintage, and reveals more fruit and intensity than it did prior to bottling. It exhibits a saturated ruby color, and copious amounts of pepper, tar, olives, licorice, and black cherry fruit in the nose. It remains the most muscular and structured of the three wines, and has managed to avoid the hollowness and vegetal character that plague so many 1993 northern Rhones. This Cote Rotie should age gracefully for a decade or more.
