Cote Rotie Chateau D`Ampuis Guigal 2010

HED84337 75cl 13.5%
Nestled in an ideal spot between the Rhône river and the ancient vineyards of the Côte-Rôtie, Château d’Ampuis has origins dating back to the 12th Century and is now the headquarters of the Guigal family. The 2010 bottling is 93% Syrah and 7% Viognier sourced from seven of the most exceptional plots of the estate’s holdings on the Côte Blonde and Côte Brune. This is a sensational release just emerging into its prime drinking window. It is fabulously rich and full-bodied, offering up delicious notes of cassis, blackberry, prune, liquorice, vanilla, woodsmoke and wild herbs. Tannic and muscular on the palate, this will benefit from extended decanting.

E. Guigal

Founded in the village of Ampuis by Etienne Guigal in 1946, Domaine Guigal is one of the most revered and unwaveringly consistent estates in the Rhône Valley, and is often seen as a benchmark for Côte-Rôtie Syrah. A pioneer of the single-vineyard concept in this appellation Guigal is best known for its top three wines, known affectionately as the ‘La-Las’, which is short for La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque – the domaine’s top Syrah vineyards .

Other notable vineyards of this 75-hectare estate include La Doriane (the source of Guigal’s Condrieu), Ex-Voto (used for Hermitage) and Vignes de l’Hospice (the source of one of Guigal’s top St-Joseph Syrahs). All of these have become benchmark wines of their respective appellations. The Crozes-Hermitage appellation completes the roster of Northern Rhône estate vineyards.

Since 2006, Guigal has made a substantial investment in appellations of the Southern Rhône, using top-quality purchased fruit from trusted growers in Châteaneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Tavel and the Côtes du Rhône.
