La Landonne Côte-Rotie Syrah

This needs time. Has the highest potential from the three and is already smooth and rounded. Taste wise there are some bordeauxy flavours...just needs another 5-10 years — 11 days ago

La Doriane Condrieu Viognier 2020

Only got a taste before this emptied. Every btl of these feels different, and this one was fresh and acid driven. — 6 hours ago

La Mouline Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2013

The best of the three Guigal wines at the moment. Juniper and bay leaf dominated the palate in this wine that seemed more integrated and developed than the other two. Went well with venison. — 11 days ago

Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

Saint-Joseph Syrah

Depth and concentration, this bottle is an ode to south saint joseph wines, with great balance and complexity. To achieve a better grade I need more finesse, but the vintages is also like that — 10 days ago

Les Vignes d'à Côté Syrah 2025

Pleasant. Subtle cranberry fruit. Subtle tartness. Touch of sweet.

More enjoyable after it opened up.

La Turque Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2013

Tasting the 2013 La Las this was the weakest of the three. A good wine but not great and lacking in wow factor. Probably too young but more bla bla than la la at the moment. — 11 days ago
