E Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Turque 2007 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard Syrah red wine from the northern Rhône Valley. Founded in 1946, Domaine Guigal is one of the most revered and consistent estates in the Rhône Valley, and is often seen as a benchmark for quality Côte-Rôtie. The top three wines from Guigal are known affectionately in some circles as the `La La`s`, which is short for La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque. "The 2007 Cote Rotie la Turque is an elegant, seamless example of this cuvee that offers sensational notes of smoked meats, truffles, blackberries and cassis, as well as a hint of tapenade with time in the glass. It has a rich, unctuous and full-bodied profile on the palate, with sweet, sweet tannin and an utterly seamless texture that makes it go down way too easy. Drink this beauty anytime over the coming two decades or more." Jeb Dunnuck, 2016
