The Guigal family are internationally recognised for producing some of the greatest wines in the Rhône Valley and have received many awards and accolades over the years. Steeped in history, they are one of the go-to names for Northern Rhone and their famous Cote-Roties. All of the Guigal estate vineyards are situated in the Northern Rhône, and each one is managed by a vigneron team who are overseen by Marcel and Philippe Guigal. All of these vineyards are harvested by hand. The wines produced from the Southern Rhône are purchased under long-term contracts and the Guigals pay the highest price for their fruit. For their Côtes du Rhône alone, they can pay up to three times as much as the standard price, to ensure they obtain the best quality fruit.
This distinctive appellation of the Northern Rhône produces wine only from the Viognier grape. Yields are notoriously low which in part accounts for the relative expense of the wine. Guigal’s Condrieu is matured entirely in new French oak and it is best to enjoy its fleshy round and full bodied character when young. Brilliant clear, golden-yellow in colour with notes of violets, peaches and apricots. Remarkably fresh.
