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 Turque 2015.

E. Guigal La Turque 2015 - Côte-Rôtie embodies the excellence of Domaine Guigal, combining the characteristic power of the Côte Brune with a subtle elegance derived from Côte Blonde influences.

This vintage is a blend of 93% Syrah and 7% Viognier, from vines aged around 35 years. The silico-limestone soil, enriched with iron oxides, gives this cuvée a marked minerality and great aromatic complexity.

Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats with automatic punching down, ensuring controlled Extraction of aromas and tannins. After a 4-week maceration, the wine is aged for 40 months in new barrels, accentuating its imposing structure and aromatic depth.

Its intense purple color with black highlights heralds an opulent, refined nose, revealing ripe black fruits (blackcurrant, blueberry), spicy notes (black pepper, clove), hints of violet and smoky, toasty nuances.

On the palate, the attack is full-bodied, revealing impressive density underpinned by velvety, powerful tannins. The long, persistent finish is marked by aromas of truffle, bitter cocoa and a touch of noble leather.

This long-ageing wine (over 25 years) will evolve magnificently over time. To be enjoyed between 16 and 18°C, it goes perfectly with refined dishes such as grilled Wagyu beef, pithiviers of pigeon with morels or leg of lamb confit with herbs, revealing all its depth and aromatic power.

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.
