Bright deep ruby. Cassis, roasted herbs, licorice and cooked tomato on the nose. Lush and thick, but with strong minerality contributing to the impression of grip. Superconcentrated fruit here. Suave, expanding finish goes on and on. Offers great long-term aging potential.

Producer Information

E. Guigal is one of the most notable wine producers in the Rhne Valley. It was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis where the headquarters remain to this day on the western banks of the Rhne river, a stone’s throw from the famous sun-roasted slopes of the Cte Rtie, and Guigal’s flagship wines, the famous “LaLa”s: La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque. Guigal has a long history of winegrowing, and today the company hold plots throughout the nothern and southern Rhne and produces wines from classic northern Rhne and Mediterranean varieties including Grenache, Mourvdre, Viognier and Roussanne, although the focus has always been on Syrah and the Cte Rtie. The company’s sizeable holdings include the likes of Saint-Joseph, Hermitage, Gigondas, Condrieu and Chteauneuf-du-Pape, and wines are made from each, often labeled simply by their appellation title a format that runs into the more affordable Ctes du Rhne range (which can be found in red, white and ros form).
