Method and source check
We check multiple rating platforms for every wine where accessible: Vivino, Wine-Searcher, Wine Spectator, Decanter, James Suckling, Robert Parker Wine Advocate. Only verified scores matching the offered vintage or NV are shown and included.
3 exact platform scores are weighted equally, regardless of their attached rating counts. Native 99- and 100-point scales are normalized from 50→1 to their own maximum→5 (99→5 or 100→5); display and filtering use one decimal. Aggregator and critic-platform scores can partly overlap.

Description
E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie Brune & Blonde is an iconic wine from the northern Rhône, made from 96% Syrah and 4% Viognier. The name refers to the two famous hills of Côte-Rôtie: the Côte Brune (dark clay soil) and the Côte Blonde (light limestone soil), which together determine the unique complexity of this wine.
On the nose, intense aromas of blackberries, violets, pepper, smoked meat, olives and a subtle floral tone from the Viognier. On the palate it is powerful and elegant, with a full body, fine tannins and flavors of dark fruit, spices, black pepper and a hint of smoked meat.
