Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline" 2008 - E. Guigal

Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline" 2008 - E Guigal

About the estate : Is it really necessary to introduce you to the E.Guigal estate (E for Etienne but we know you already knew that)? Established in Ampuis since 1946, this large family estate is currently managed in the best possible way by the third generation of winemakers. The estate owns some of the most illustrious plots in the Rhone Valley, including this one.

About the cuvée: La Mouline is a goldsmith's cuvée, a blend of powerful Syrah softened with a little viognier. After a careful sorting that will eliminate 25% of the harvest of only 1 HA, it benefits from a 40-month aging in new barrels. In the end, only 4980 bottles were produced in 2008, making it an extremely rare bottle.

About the 2008 vintage: You may be starting to know us. At WUAT we focus on wines with great ageing potential. The 2008 vintage is the most closed of the 2000s vintages but has particularly interesting potential for development. It should reach its peak between 2025 and 2030.
