Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline" 2008 - E Guigal
About the domain: Is it very useful to introduce you to the E.Guigal domain (E for Etienne but we know that you already knew it)? Established in Ampuis since 1946, this great family estate is currently managed in the best possible way by the third generation of winegrowers. The estate owns some of the most illustrious plots in the Rhône Valley, of which this one is a part.
About the cuvée: La Mouline is a goldsmith's cuvée, a blend of powerful Syrah sweetened with a little Viognier. After careful sorting which will eliminate 25% of the harvest from only 1 HA, it benefits from aging for 40 months in new barrels. In the end, only 4980 bottles were produced in 2008, making it one of the rarest bottles.
About the 2008 vintage: You may be getting to know us. At WUAT we set our sights on wines with great aging potential. The 2008 vintage is the most closed of the 2000s vintages but has particularly interesting potential for development. It is expected to reach its peak between 2025 and 2030.
