Persoonlijke gegevens
Guigal is the pioneer of "single vineyards" in Côte Rôtie. From its three most famous vineyards "La Landonne", "La Mouline" and "La Turque" come the most sought after and famous wines in the world. The Guigal story starts in 1924, when Etienne Guigal started working in the cellars of Vidal Fleury at the age of 14. By 1946 he had been cellar master for some time and he thought it was time to set up his own company. This happened in Ampuis, located in the heart of the Côte Rôtie appellation. In 1961 son Marcel joins the company. He is currently in charge of Guigal and his son Philippe, 3rd generation, is responsible for the production process of the wines. Guigal makes "simple" winemaking genius. They work completely organically in the vineyards, use low yields and there is no intervention in the cellars. In short, we work with respect for nature and passion for wine. Besides the "La, La, La" wines, Côte Rôtie "Château d'Ampuis", Condrieu "La Doriane" and the L'Ermitage "Ex Voto" are some of the domain's crown jewels.
The Côte-Rôtie "La Mouline" is one of the most unique wines of the Guigal domain from the 'LaLa wines' top series. Small quantities are produced each year from a vineyard in the heart of the 'côte blonde'. This is a voluptuous, silky and intensely aromatic wine. More elegant and 'feminine' than the La Landonne and La Turque. Made from 89% syrah with 11% viognier from grapevines with an average age of 75 years. De La Mouline is dominated by dark notes of espresso, black olives and rye bread. The wine certainly needs a few more years to develop further, so our advice is not to open this wine until around 2027/2028 and even a little more patience will be rewarded.
GOOD FACT: The wine is stored in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will also receive a nice discount. We are almost next to the national road with plenty of parking space. Click here for address

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze La Mouline 2019 toont een wulpse, zijdezachte syrah-structuur met intense aroma's van donker fruit, espresso, zwarte olijven, roggebrood en subtiele bloemige en specerijtonen door de viognier in de blend. Door de stevige maar verfijnde tannines, rijpe fruitconcentratie en een fijne zuurgraad vormt hij een perfecte tegenhanger van vet en umami in rundvlees, lam, wild, charcuterie en gerijpte kazen, waarbij de olijf- en rokerige tonen de hartige smaken versterken. Vooral langzaam gegaard of herb-geroosterd lam, medium-rare gegrild rundvlees met een korst van peper en rozemarijn, of rijpe kazen en krachtige salami's met noten en vijgen doen het uitzonderlijk goed bij deze wijn. |

Dominated by dark notes of espresso, black olive and pumpernickel, the 2020 Cote Rotie La Mouline was missing the vineyard's normally expressive floral aromas on this occasion. Full-bodied and rich, it's an atypically muscular and closed vintage of La Mouline right now. It will be interesting to see how it evolves over the next few years of élevage.
It was the start of the last full day of my 2021 Rhône trip when I pulled into the parking lot at Guigal around 9:30 a.m. Reminder: Always dress warmly when tasting at Guigal, because the cellars are a few degrees cooler than average! The cool temperatures help inhibit the growth of any spoilage organisms during the extended élevage these wines receive. While the stars of the cellars are the single-vineyard wines from Côte-Rôtie, the Guigal family takes pride in all of the wines they produce, and one reliable indicator of the quality of a Southern Rhône vintage is the quality and volume produced of the négoce Côtes du Rhône, which is typically around 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvèdre. The 2018 is charming and fruit-forward, while the 2019 looks to be slightly more concentrated. The family's relationships in Gigondas go back before the elevation of that appellation to cru status in 1971, so that is another reliable southern offering from the négociant side of the business. In the Northern Rhône, the large-scale bottlings from Condrieu and Côte-Rôtie are consistent performers and widely distributed. As they will be many consumers' introduction to these appellations, it's important they remain of high quality, vintage after vintage. The so-called La Las really require no introduction, except to mention that a new La La is being contemplated—a steep, two-hectare parcel within the Fongeant lieu-dit was vinified separately in 2019 and 2020. I was able to taste some impressive barrel samples, but as those wines will not be bottled separately, I've not scored them or added them to the database. Philippe Guigal was hopeful that the new wine—tentatively named La Renarde—would be ready to make a formal debut beginning with the 2022 vintage. Value-oriented consumers who still want a taste of Northern Rhône Syrah will want to focus on the family's négoce bottlings from Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph. While the Crozes is normally a fruit-forward, easy-drinking wine, the 2019 version boasts a bit more concentration than usual, while the 2018 and 2019 St-Joes both deliver ripe fruit and hints of granitic austerity. The Lieu-Dit Saint-Joseph and Vignes de l'Hospice bottlings ratchet up the intensity of both oak and terroir, but prices for those are rising rapidly, as consumers have caught on to the value they represent. As a side note, my tastings at Guigal's cellars in Ampuis included wines from the family's estate in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Château de Nalys, but I've chosen to include those reviews in my Southern Rhône coverage, slated to appear in the next few weeks.

From: Northern Rhône: Where Diversity Ignites the Senses (Mar 2024)
The 2019 Côte-Rôtie La Mouline bursts with juniper, black cherry, crushed violets, cured meat, vanilla, cedar and a splash of mint. Medium- to full-bodied and remarkably polished, the flamboyant 2019 presents substantial power and density yet neatly maintains balance though fresh acidity. Give this tightly knit La Mouline another five years in bottle, and start enjoying it while waiting for the 2019 La Landonne to come around.

This year's visit to Guigal brought some intriguing news. To start with, the 2022 Côte-Rôtie La Reynarde will be the inaugural vintage of the fourth “La” within the iconic Guigal line-up. Named after the stream running between Côte Blonde and Côte Brune, the grapes are sourced from a 1.6-hectare steep plot within the Fongeant lieu-dit. After new vines were first planted between 2015 and 2019, Philippe Guigal bottled a single barrel separately as of the 2019 vintage. To provide better context and understanding before tasting the inaugural 2022 La Reynarde, he poured the 2019, 2020 and 2021 vintage samples for context. Each year, a greater proportion of fruit from these fairly young vines was ready to be used in the blend. While the fragrant 2019 had me thinking of a La Mouline with a little kick, tasting the more structured and denser 2020 and 2021 stylistically placed the La Reynarde closer to La Turque. Another interesting adaptation of the Guigal wines includes a change in cooperage. “More than 20 years ago, my father Marcel and I were looking for a partner to set up our family cooperage,” Guigal explained. “In 2003, we teamed up with a renowned cooper. One of the advantages of using their methods was that they made our wines more open and accessible – a great advantage in cooler years. Given the changing climate and increasingly higher temperatures, we started to feel that another solution was needed. After trying out many options, even from Austria and Slovenia, we landed on a partnership with a high-end cooperage located in Beaune. Not only do their barrels impart less vanilla flavor to our wines, but they also prevent the wines from unnecessarily opening up. The 2020 vintage saw a mixture of cooperages, while the 2021 will be the first vintage to fully show the in-depth work we achieved with this barrel change.” What has not changed is the heavy use of new oak in Guigal’s winemaking. “We stay true to the Guigal house style,” Guigal firmly points out. Having had dozens of spectacular mature Guigal wines from the past three decades, there isn’t much to hold against that stylistic choice; with the few exceptions of less ripe vintages, Guigal wines can handle the new oak. But there’s a caveat: The reds need time. In the case of the outstanding 2022 Côte-Rôtie La Landonne, time means holding off at least until 2037 to pop the first cork. Whether or not there is a sufficient number of consumers out there willing to wait that long is a different question.

From: Northern Rhône: A First Look at the 2019s (May 2020)
Bright, highly perfumed blueberry, black raspberry, violet and exotic spice aromas, along with a wild touch of blood orange. Juicy and lithe on the palate, offering intense red and blue fruit flavors that stain the palate while showing little in the way of excess weight. Finishes extremely long and sweet, with a building floral note, even tannins and a late jolt of five-spice powder.

Maison E. Guigal is a winery with a great reputation. The company was founded in 1946 and is now three generations old. Founder Etienne Guigal strongly determined the current identity of this producer. Before setting up his own winery he collected his first experiences with the producer Vidal-Fleury. Marcel Guigal and his son Philippe are now in charge of the company. The latter is responsible for winemaking and thus follows in the footsteps of his grandfather, who experienced no fewer than 67 vintages.
Guigal is located in Ampuis, just 38 km south of Lyon. Here it has 60 hectares of land in the Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, Châteauneuf du Pape, Tavel and Gigondas appellations. The Guigals are now also the owners of Domaine de Bonserine and Vidal Fleury. Since 1995, Guigal has managed the company from the famous Château d'Ampuis. This castle dates from the 12th century and was rebuilt in the Renaissance style in the 16th century.
The wine magazine Decanter named Marcel Guigal in 2006 "Man of the year." Renowned wine guide Guide Hachette takes it one step further and calls Guigal "the best winemaker in the world." Robert Parker also has deep respect for Guigal. The top wines of this producer regularly receive the highest score of 100 points. The 'La La' wines are special. These come from the 3 top locations 'La Turque', 'La Landonne', and 'La Moulin'.
