Guigal
Domaine Guigal was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis; a small, ancient village in the heart of the name Côte Rôtie with unique vineyards. Etienne settled there in 1924, just 14 years old, and for years made wine for 67 vintages in Côte Rôtie, even participating in the development of the Vidal-Fleury establishment. In 1961, still very young, Marcel Guigal took over the management of the domain, and in 1973 he was joined by his wife Bernadette. The two work side by side to expand the family business. Their son Philip was born in 1975 and today he is the oenologist of the domain. Together with his wife Eva, they now represent the third generation of winemakers, producing some of the largest wines in the Rhône Valley.

Rhone Valley
The Rhone Valley is a long, narrow strip in the south of France. In practice, this region is divided into two sub-regions, each with its own type and identity - North and South Rhone. The northern part is best known for its legendary and long-lasting red wines, mainly from Syrah grapes: Hermitage, Ivory Coast, St. Joseph and Cornas, as well as the fragrant white Viognier from Condrieu. The south is home to the full Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, as well as the light Rose of Tavel. Chateauneuf-du-Pape can be a blend of up to 13 different varieties, 3 of which are even white. This is the main difference between it and Gigondas, where white varieties in the blend are not allowed. The most famous of these main red varieties are Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah and Cinsault, and the white ones are Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier.

Syrah
Syrah/Shiraz - Two names of one and the same grape variety - the winemakers from the Old world use Syrah and the ones from the New world - Shiraz. The grape is a deep red, even the pulp, therefore this variety is not suitable for blanc de noir wine style. Syrah wine has specific floral aromas in its youth and develops notes of herbs and spices such as white and black pepper as it ages. These varietal specifics come out better when blended with a small amount of Viognier - a method gaining popularity more and more around the world. Syrah produces wines capable of ageing and improving over decades, which enhances its plummy and almost oriental spicy flavours.
