E. Guigal La Mouline Côte-Rôtie Syrah 1998
The awesome 1998 Cote Rotie La Mouline is a seamless, full-bodied classic with many characteristics of the 1997 La Landonne , but more structure, tannin, and muscle. It will need two years of cellaring, and will last for twenty years. Stylistically, it is reminiscent of the 1988. Robert Parker

Very closed. Acidic, with a short finish and light nose. Not worth the price at this point in time. May develop over time but not a pleasant wine to drink at this point.

Beautiful vintage for N Rhone that is still youthful with a perfumed nose of black cherry, strawberry fruit, graphite, smoke, meat, dried herbs, olive, pepper & violet

Cracked open an Owc tonight that I had purchased 6 yrs ago. Still fairly tight needing more years showing dark berry fruits, spice, menthol, licorice & tobacco notes

Very nice overall but if I’m being honest a bit under expectations. Aromatically brilliant, with dark petal flowers and earth and a bit of sweet dark red fruit. Just before the finish the palate falls apart a bit - just missing that extra gear. Still an excellent pairing with the steak in the background (prime dry aged rib eye from Hudson and Charles). Decanted for 2 hours but not sure it made a huge difference, didn’t change much in the glass.
