2020 Guigal Cote-Rotie La Landonne

98–100 points, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate 
The undisputed star of the cellar this vintage (at least at this stage), the 2020 Cote Rôtie La Landonne is not only unbelievably complex on the nose – with an awesome stew of vegetal-herbal nuances blended with cassis and smoked meat – but full-bodied, concentrated, velvety-textured and remarkably long and tannic. Patience will be required.

The potentially perfect 2020 Côte-Rôtie La Landonne is riveting. Bringing together all the finest elements of the Guigal house style, it explodes from the glass with smoky blackberry jam, menthol, crushed rocks, cured meat, iodine, licorice, cloves and black olive tapenade. Charged with a massive tannic core, this concentrated powerhouse dazzles with off-the-charts intensity yet total clarity and focus. Built like a skyscraper, the 2020 will surely be a long-distance runner.
