Lot #1432. M. Chapoutier Côte-Rôtie La Mordorée 1991

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 100 RP.
"In the same class as the great single-vineyard Cote Roties made by Marcel Guigal (i.e., La Mouline, La Turque, and La Landonne), La Mordoree is most akin to La Mouline in its seductive, otherworldly fragrance and layers of sweet, expansive, velvety-textured fruit. There were 400 cases made of this saturated purple-colored wine. Its huge bouquet and spectacularly rich, layered personality offer an astonishing example of what low yields from a naturally farmed vineyard and an unfined, unfiltered winemaking philosophy can achieve." Rhone Book, Jan 1997
Provenance: The Tower Cellar
Notes: 3cm, nicked and very lightly damp stained label.
