Jeb Dunnuck Tasting Note

I loved the 2019 Hermitage Blanc, another impeccably made white from this team. Medium to full-bodied, pure, and even elegant, yet still with plenty of oomph, it has brilliant notes of quince, crushed stone, acacia flowers, and spice. Despite coming from a warmer (hot) vintage, this has notable purity and freshness. Drink it over the coming 10-12 years or so (it will keep longer).

About the Producer

About the Producer

The E. Guigal estate, a jewel of the Rhône Valley, has been anchored in Ampuis since its founding in 1946 by Étienne Guigal. On these lands where vines have flourished since Roman times, a long family history has been written. Marcel Guigal succeeded his father in 1961, breathing new life into the estate, notably through the acquisition of Vidal-Fleury. Today, Philippe Guigal represents the third generation, perpetuating the family legacy with passion and precision. From the cellars of Ampuis, the E. Guigal estate crafts the finest northern appellations with extreme care, without overlooking a few southern gems. Côte-Rôtie holds a place of honor, with its iconic single-vineyard cuvées—true benchmarks such as La Mouline, La Landonne, and La Turque—not to mention the Château d'Ampuis and the famous Brune et Blonde de Guigal. Guigal's talent is also expressed in the Condrieu appellation with La Doriane, as well as in Hermitage and Saint-Joseph, and of course, the essential Côtes du Rhône. A family saga dedicated to the excellence of Rhône Valley wines. Among the most sought-after cuvées are E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Mouline, E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Landonne, and E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Turque, which serve as essential references for understanding the identity of the house.
