Winemaking This signature red blend is made from Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre, sourced from across the southern Rhône. Guigal is known for elevating everyday appellations through careful vineyard selection and extended ageing. The wine is fermented traditionally and matured in oak, offering depth, consistency, and a touch of polish.
Bouquet Ripe blackberry, plum, and raspberry are lifted by black pepper, clove, and soft floral notes. A subtle savoury edge adds complexity to the fruit-driven nose.
Palate Full-flavoured and silky, with generous dark fruit, fine tannins, and spice. Hints of liquorice and dried herbs lead into a smooth, balanced finish.
Food Pairing Ideal with grilled meats, cassoulet, roast vegetables, or herbed sausages. A versatile red that works across a wide range of comforting and rustic dishes.
Cellaring Drinking well now but will hold for up to 5 years. A great option for both weeknight meals and relaxed entertaining.
Interesting Fact Guigal’s Côtes du Rhône is often considered a benchmark for the region—offering exceptional quality year after year thanks to the family’s meticulous standards and long history in the Rhône.
