From

Born in the prestigious yet humbling embrace of the Côte Blonde, where terraced vineyards perch daringly on dizzy slopes. With roots tracing back over a century, La Mouline is more than a bottle—it’s Guigal’s ode to time, nature, and the nuanced dance of Syrah and Viognier that’s as rhythmically entwined as the very soil they spring from.

Crafted with precision, co-fermented to elevate floral nuances, and aged luxuriously in new French oak—it’s a decadent embrace wrapped in a bottle, every drop a testament to Guigal’s relentless pursuit of excellence. This isn’t an ordinary revelation—it’s a tale of old-world charm endlessly reinventing itself, leaving a trail of exquisite allure.

The award-winning La Mouline 2020 dances with flavors as vibrant and varied as a painter’s palette, its structure balanced, sophisticated, and poised to steal the evening.
