The power of Syrah and the finesse of Viognier blend together beautifully here, showcasing all the richness offered by the exceptional terroir of the Côte Brune. La Turque 2004 is a unique nectar, deep red in color, opening with notes of red berries, morello cherry, and blackberry. Aromatic intensity, power, and elegance make this a harmonious, refined, and concentrated vintage, thanks in particular to a unique 42-month aging process in new barrels straight from the estate’s own cooperage. A prime example of the expressiveness of Côte-Rôties!
