The Estate
The Guigal Estate was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis, and taken over by Marcel, his son, in 1961. This family business prospers each generation, and is nowadays famous all around the world for their high-quality wines. Philippe, Marcel's son, manages the vineyards since 1975 with its wife Eve, and they have vines in famous plots such as La Dorianne in Condrieu, La Turque, La Mouline or La Landonne in Côte-Rôtie.
Description
Terroir : Parcelles en terrasses escarpées, sols schisteux et silico-calcaires en Côte-Blonde et riches en oxydes de fer en Côte-Brune. 35 ans environ d’âge moyen des vignes. Rendement de 35 Hl/ hectare.
Vinification & élevage : Vendanges manuelles et trie des raisins, puis pigeages réguliers et contrôle des températures de fermentations en cuves inox closes pendant près de trois semaines. Elevage de 36 mois minimum en fûts de chêne. 50% bois neuf.
Dégustation : Robe sombre de couleur rouge rubis. Nez d’épices, petits fruits rouges et arômes délicats du bois. En bouche, un vin aux tanins ronds et fondus. Arômes de framboises, de mûres et de vanille. Une Harmonie entre l’acidité imperceptible, des tanins lui conférant une bonne garde mais adoucis par un affinage prolongé sous-bois.
Ce classique de la maison et de l’Appellation constitue l’archétype dans l’expression fine et racée des Côte-Rôtie.

Wine Advocate (Robert Parker)
90-92/ 100
Hints of almond paste and vanilla accent red cherries and raspberries on the nose of the 2017 Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde. It's medium-bodied, crisp and crunchy yet finishes ripe and silky. It's another classic vintage that should drink well young yet be capable of up to a decade of cellaring.

the 2017 Côte Rôtie Brune Et Blonde will be an outstanding wine as well as have 15 years of prime drinking. Rocking levels of kirsch and black raspberry fruits are interwoven with nuances of flowers, incense, herbes de Provence, and spice. This ripe, sexy, medium to full-bodied barrel sample shows the sunny style of the vintage yet has seamless tannins and stays weightless on the palate.
