E. Guigal

Guigal has long been synonymous with excellence and renown in the Rhône Valley, and its iconic wines are recognized around the world for their exceptional quality and distinctive character. Founded by Étienne Guigal in 1946, this family-run business has managed to pRéserver a remarkable winegrowing heritage and pass it on from generation to generation.

Among Guigal's signature wines are those of Côte-Rôtie, an appellation that represents the very essence of Domaine. Côte-Rôtie is famous for its steeply terraced vineyards, schist soils and continental climate. The resulting red wines are elegant, powerful and complex. Guigal offers several Côte-Rôtie cuvées, including the famous "La Mouline", "La Turque" and "La Landonne". These wines are refined expressions of Syrah, with seductive aromas of black fruits, spices, violets and licorice, as well as a remarkable tannic structure. They are renowned for their ability to age for many years, developing additional complexity and depth.

Another iconic Guigal wine is Hermitage, a prestigious appellation located on a hill overlooking the town of Tain-l'Hermitage. Hermitage vineyards produce red wines of great distinction, from the Syrah grape variety, as well as elegant white wines, based on Marsanne and Roussanne. Guigal's Hermitage red wines are renowned for their concentration, tannic structure and aromatic complexity. They feature intense aromas of black fruit, spice, licorice and truffle, as well as impressive length on the palate. Guigal's Hermitage white wines are... See more ...

Description E. Guigal La Mouline 2017.

E. Guigal La Mouline 2017 is an exceptional cru from the terraced vineyards of Côte Blonde, one of the most prestigious terroirs of Domaine Guigal.

This Rare wine comes from a blend of 89% Syrah and 11% Viognier, with vines averaging 75 years old. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, with traditional pumping-over and 4-week maceration, followed by 40 months' ageing in new barrels, giving the wine the aromatic depth and velvety texture characteristic of this legendary cuvée.

Visually, La robe intense purple with ruby highlights heralds great concentration.

The complex, refined nose exhales aromas of red and black fruits (black cherry, blackberry), floral notes of violet and peony, accompanied by a subtle touch of precious woods, blond tobacco and sweet spices.

On the palate, the attack is silky and ample, revealing elegant tannins and fine mineral tension. The long, persistent finish is marked by nuances of candied plum, licorice and cocoa, offering perfect harmony between power and finesse.

This great wine for laying down, with a lifespan of 20 to 25 years, should be served between 16 and 18°C.

It is ideal with refined, complex dishes such as roast pigeon with morel mushrooms, herb-crusted rack of lamb, or black truffle risotto, where its aromatic gourmandise and velvety structure sublimate each pairing.

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
