The estate and the wine |
|
|
Maison Guigal is not just a top winery, it’s a legendary story of human achievement. They’ve reached the peak of Rhône winemaking, with their Côte-Rôties La Mouline, La Landonne, and La Turque standing as unmatched icons.
These wines are masterfully crafted for long aging, combining power, depth, and rare finesse. They are timeless masterpieces, destined to be cherished for generations.
Château d'Ampuis, made from seven exceptional terroirs on the famous Brune and Blonde slopes, often stands shoulder to shoulder with these legends. The vines, all at least 50 years old, contribute to a wine of extraordinary character.
These gems are consistently celebrated by critics, including the Parker Guide, and recent vintages are no exception. With production being extremely limited, these wines are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike. |
