E. Guigal
Land with 24 centuries of history behind it worked and preserved by three generations of winemakers with family values at their core and a commitment to an illustrious terrain that produces prestigious wines. This in a nutshell is the Maison Guigal. Right from the beginning the motto “No Pains No Gains” underpins the promise made to Etienne Guigal. A commitment to work together to follow in his footsteps to communicate the family’s passion and create so many emotions. Today Marcel and Philippe along with their wives are the guardians of this exceptional domain which combines history devotion and a sense of togetherness. A breath of inspiration for generations to come.
Description
"Much more open and inviting than the Hermitage, Guigal's 2015 Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde boasts hallmark aromas of dried flowers, herbs, raspberries and black olives. Medium to full-bodied, it's simultaneously rich and silky, showing fine, balanced acidity on the crisp finish. Considering it may account for as much as a third of the appellation's volume, it's a remarkable achievement and testament to the tremendous quality of the vintage. Even folks who buy and cellar the La Las will want to have some of this in their cellars for early drinking." WA
