These aromas are further enhanced by the subtle floral and herbal nuances contributed by the Viognier. On the palate, La Turque exhibits a full-bodied and velvety texture, with well-integrated tannins that provide structure and balance. The flavors mirror the aromas, with an emphasis on dark fruits, complemented by hints of black pepper, licorice, and roasted coffee. The wine's impressive depth and complexity unfold gradually, leading to a long and satisfying finish. E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Turque is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has excellent aging potential.
