La Turque 2009

The Guigal La Turque 2009 This iconic French Red Wine originates from Côte-Rôtie, the northernmost wine-growing region of the Rhône. The traditional Guigal estate cultivates a wine on this steep, single vineyard that is prized worldwide for its finesse and longevity. The grapes grow on ancient, terraced vineyards with granite and schist soils, which impart the wine's distinctive minerality. Discover more excellent Wines. Wines from the Rhône in our selection.

Guigal vinifies La Turque with the utmost precision: The Syrah grapes are hand-harvested, gently fermented, and then aged for 42 months in new French oak barrels. A small percentage of Viognier – traditional in the Côte-Rôtie – lends the wine additional aromatic depth and elegance. The 2009 Vintage is considered exceptional, characterized by ideal climatic conditions that led to perfect grape ripeness.

On the nose, the Guigal La Turque 2009 unfolds an opulent bouquet of dark berries, violets, black pepper, and toasted wood.
