Critic reviews
James Suckling – In spite of the cool 2021 vintage, this complex Cote Rotie has excellent smoke, tar and pepper aromas plus some gingerbread and candied oranges. A very elegant expression of this site that has the concentration we expect, but more restrained power than in hot and dry vintages. Great length, the oak beautifully integrated in the very long, sophisticated finish. From the Cote Brune section of this appellation. Drink or hold. Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com – Apr 2025
Decanter – This is very much on the perfumed, rose-like side of La Turque, along with characteristic star anise, nutmeg, and cinnamon spice, partly from the oak. It’s relatively light in body and concentration this year, but does have a good sense of freshness. More char and spice on the finish, along with vanilla pod. This year it’s actually quite light in tannins, and they are very fine. No hints of greenness, it’s fine and neat. It will be ready relatively early, and is not a vintage for long ageing. Low alcohol. At the beginning of its long maturation in 100% new oak barriques. Matt Walles, Decanter – Oct 2022

93-95 Points Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous – Oct 2023
"The medium-bodied 2021 Côte-Rôtie La Turque offers up ripe fruits paired with meaty undertones and a splash of menthol. Vivid freshness marks the seamless palate, wrapped in a refined tannic structure. Ending with elegance on the savory finale, the 2021 is less punchy compared to the 2020 and 2022, yet it presents wonderful purity and expressiveness"
Côte-Rôtie « La Turque » is one of the flagship of the Domaine GUIGAL. A powerful wine with spicy notes, its terroirs from côte brune with “blond accents” lends it a great elegance. The treasures are born in the very heart of the most legendary of the illustrious plots of the Maison Guigal. These precious bottles are as coveted as they are rare and have benefited from extreme care at every stage of the process, from the vine to the cellars. They are the sole incarnation of the inspiration and inheritance of centuries of viticulture in an exceptional terroir.
