2016 GPL (rated 96 by me: though the price had gone up it was still within what I consider its correct price range). RTPL

Wine.com substituted a ‘16 Guigal Ampuis into an order for a $70 Cote Rotie that was out of stock.

I don’t see much on CT. While I’m familiar with Guigal, I don’t drink their wines much.

Debating whether to keep this, even if the price was a deal.

Anyone familiar with this? What should I expect in terms of style? I assume this will hold for 5 - 10 yrs

Rest of the order was LP Grand Siecle

The 2016 was killer. Generally a strong value play.

the 16 seems like it might be a bit of an inferior vintage, but the 15 is supposed to be REALLY good
https://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=2672445

I have 24 bottles of the 15, but never tried one yet. It should hold for quite a few years - at least a few more before it hits prime I'd guess.

My BD Albert wines just arrived. Look at those fills and crisp labels! Amazing for 82s. (Aside from the Latour that was damaged and looks like it fell off during shipping.)

I received mine as well, also used overnight air delivery given the bottles and it being a bit warm down in FL now.

Love all of these vintages, but that 2014 Raffault, is probably my fave vintage since 2005. I need to grab more. Just snagged a case of 2014 Domaine Guion Deux Mont, which to me, had a similar profile to the Raffault. Splitting it with fellow Loire hack, MarcF.

Yeah, I've heard good things about the 2014! Only 15 EUR direct from the estate, moreover, so not much can go wrong.

And I have a couple of bottles of 2014. Haven’t opened one. I bought without tasting it at the domaine. I figured how bad can it be?

It's my understanding the Ampuis bottling used to go into the Blond et Brune Cote Rotie. When they bottled separately the quality of B & B went down. Those with more knowledge will correct me. I have had very good bottles of Ampuis most recently the 2000. I feel that '16 is a very good year in N. Rhone and many on this board prefer it to '15. At $70 I feel you got a decent price on the bottle. Rule of 15.

Do you know what parcels go into the Lauer 270, and it's style (I assume probably dry or off-dry)?

Brian, here is what the marketing copy says from Vom Boden:

The Lauer Riesling 270 E-S-W is a Stirn-like bottling - so off-dry...sourced from parcels near Stirn (E) parts near Neuenberg (S) and then way over where Senior is from, away from river (W)—thus the name—picked from 3 parcels representing east, south, and then more west exposures. This is the first time this wine was made and only one barrel was produced. He was thinking of possibly sending it to auction but offered it to us instead.

Three prime parcels, all blended together, one Fuder produced! 1 part Stirn (E), 1 part Neuenberg (S), and then way over where Senior is from, away from river (West) - thus the name - picked from 3 parcels representing east, south, and then more west exposures. Slightly off-dry, or Feinherb.

Ironically I was worried this one would be sold out by the time my order went through, but the willi schaefer ended up being the one they couldn't fulfill.
