Guigal and a flagship expression of the Côte Brune. Sourced from iron-rich schist and clay soils, La Turque combines power and precision with a distinctive sense of elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2006 vintage shows an intensely aromatic profile, driven by small red fruits, blackberry and morello cherry. The palate opens with a supple attack before building concentration and structure, supported by elegant, finely shaped tannins. With the virility of the Côte Brune balanced by the subtlety associated with the Côte Blonde, La Turque delivers both authority and finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEye:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep ruby red with dark tints.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Small red fruits, blackberry and morello cherry; intensely aromatic, powerful and elegant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supple attack with balanced structure, concentration and refined tannins, fully expressive of its terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape Variety: Syrah (93%), Viognier (7%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Côte-Rôtie \/ Rhône \/ France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlcohol: 13.5–14.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweetness: Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVineyard: Côte Brune, siliceous limestone with schist and iron-rich clay soils; average vine age 25 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinemaking: Thermoregulated stainless steel tanks, automated punch-downs, 4-week maceration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaturation: 42 months in new French oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrinking Window: 2012–2039\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52895728992619,"sku":"SK43762546","price":899.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/435E.GUIGALLaTurque_Cote-Rotie2006Bottle_6d246fcc-d887-4278-a4b1-36f123e7a399.png?v=1780389352","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/2006-e-guigal-cote-rotie-la-turque-750ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
