Unlike La Tourtine, this bottle’s cork wouldn’t come out in one piece, on first sip this is more dark-fruited and almost brooding aromatically and on the palate, massive fruit impression, great balance, also a super long, lingering finish, another WOW! While I hesitate to say this, in the old days I would describe this La Miguoa as rough and masculine, and La Tourtine as silky and feminine, but both are truly outstanding. The price tag from WinEx back in the day was still on this bottle, $22.99.
