Reviewed May 2025Black raspberries, wildflowers, and bacon fat emerge from the 2022 Côte Rôtie La Mouline, which has an exotic yet dark, rich, and powerful profile. Based on 89% Syrah and 11% Viognier and aged 42 months in new oak, it has plenty of mid-palate depth, full-bodied richness, and ripe tannins, all while maintaining classic La Mouline character and sexiness.

Decanter
Finely spiced, very true to form in its tobacco leaf aromas. Particularly saline this year and detailed, not quite as lush as some 2022s, which is no bad thing. Exuberant and very much a classic expression, tannins are a touch dry and it's currently full of oak smoke on the finish. Not overly alcoholic, though the fruit is extremely ripe. From lieu-dit Côte Blonde. At the beginning of its 40 months in new French oak barriques. (MW)

Wine Advocate
Notes of iris, oak, ripe dark berries and spices intertwined with an oaky character preface the 2022 Cote Rotie La Mouline, a blend of 89% Syrah and 11% Viognier. Full-bodied, dense and suave, it's enveloping and concentrated. With a rich chassis of tannins and a muscular yet sappy structure, it concludes with a long, oaky and spicy finish. Compared to its counterparts, La Mouline is always more enveloping and charming when young; this vintage is no exception. (YC)

Vinous
Pronounced intensity of raspberry, black cherry, Bourbon vanilla, crushed violets, blossom and cedar introduce the 2022 Côte-Rôtie La Mouline. Medium-bodied and refreshing, the 2022 is shaping up to be a classic La Mouline with energy and finesse. Firmly structured and perfectly balanced, it finishes with excellent drive on the complex finish. (NG)
