Guigal
Guigal is the most famous produer in Côte Rôtie and one of the finest in the Rhône Valley. It was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal, following his departure from Vidal-Fleury, where he had worked for just under twenty years. His son, Marcel, joined the company in 1961 and is now the head of the company.
Guigal pioneered the notion of single vineyard Côte Rôties and his 3 most famous wines, La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque are amongst the most sought after wines in the world today.
Marcel Guigal's attitude to winemaking is typical of the simple genius that one seems to stumble upon when looking at any of the world's greatest winemakers - low yields, organic viticulture and little or no intervention in the cellars - in short, a respect for nature and a passion for the wine itself.
Robert Parker commented on Marcel Guigal that "In the past 20 years I have spent visiting wineries and vignerons, I have never seen a producer so fanatical about quality as Marcel Guigal."

This very distinctive wine is a terrific expression of old-vine Marsanne. Unctuous peach and pear skin aromas are followed by white pepper, tropical fruit and hazelnuts. From one of the oldest and steepest vineyards in the appellation, this is surely one of St Joseph’s very best white wines. Drink 2011-2017 . Parker Score: 90 - 92/100 | ||||

A conspicuous success for the gifted Philippe Guigol, the 2008 Doriane is rich and unctuous, plump and very approachable; the usual descriptors of dried apricot, pineapple, peaches and cream are all present and correct. (Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer) | ||||

The archetype of the richer, oaky style of Condrieu, La Doriane has had a particularly successful outing in 2007. Pear, peach and more tropical elements dominate the nose whilst the elegant palate exhibits a rich, spicy, honeyed texture Drink 2009-2013 . Parker Score: 95/100 | ||||
