Chapoutier Cote Rotie La Mordoree 1991 Northern Rhone u: three at 1. 5cm, one at 3cm, bin scrapes and staining and glue striping to labels, losses to one, nick to another label "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. Anticipated maturity: now-2020." R. Parker for TWA, 100 pts. 07/96 4 bottles Provenance: Winter's Collection.
