Guigal’s Côte-Rôtie “La Turque” 2018 is a benchmark of northern Rhône Syrah, sourced from a tiny vineyard in the Côte Brune, where schist soils and steep exposures produce wines of intensity and structure. Made from Syrah with a touch of Viognier, co-fermented for aromatic lift, it is aged for over three years in 100% new oak, a signature of the Guigal style.

The 2018 vintage brings blackberry, cassis, licorice, smoked meat, and floral perfume, layered over a dense, finely grained frame. The oak is present but beautifully integrated, supporting the fruit rather than overpowering it. It’s rich and expressive now with a decant, but has the depth and balance to evolve for 20+ years.

Pair with roast lamb, duck confit, or aged cheeses, or cellar it for a special occasion years down the line. This is Syrah at its most sculpted and grand, and a must-have for collectors of fine Rhône reds.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 98
"Smoke- and mineral-accented cherry and blackberry scents, along with powerful suggestions of exotic spices, incense and cracked pepper. Deep-pitched but also energetic on the palate, offering appealingly sweet dark berry, cherry liqueur and floral pastille flavors braced by a spine of juicy acidity. The floral note carries through an impressively long, penetrating finish that shows outstanding clarity and steadily mounting tannins." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 96
"Shut down tight on this occasion, the dark, impenetrable 2018 Cote Rotie La Turque is clearly dense and packed with potential. Cedary notes, dark, concentrated fruit, potent tannins and a long, dusty finish suggest plenty of upside for the patient." -Robert Parker
