Robert Parker (100)

The most developed, evolved and forward of the three La-La’s in this vintage is the dense purple-colored 1999 Cote Rotie La Mouline. An extraordinary effort, it offers a smorgasbord of aromas and flavors. Scents of violets, raspberries, blackberries, roasted espresso, balsamic vinegar, and pepper tumble out of the glass. It is unctuously-textured, full-bodied, and fabulously concentrated with a tremendous purity and seamlessness that must be tasted to be believed. A wine of singular greatness, it can be drunk young, but should be at its finest between 2005-2020.

What is so remarkable about this cuvee is its tremendous layers of flavor, awesome texture, and perfect balance. This is an astonishing offering from one of the world’s greatest winemakers.

This offers a stunning depth of fruit, with a nearly endless beam of raspberry ganache and linzer torte woven with very alluring incense, truffle and mesquite notes. There's superb minerality buried deep on the long, flashy finish. Still has some surprising tannins to shed, though this is not as outwardly grippy as the Landonne. Contains 11 percent Viognier.--1999 Côte-Rôtie non-blind retrospective.
