Guigal Cote-Rotie ‘Brune et Blonde’ is a classic Northern Rhône red wine made using traditional fermentation techniques.

The Guigal Estate, founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis, boasts a unique vineyard renowned for 2,400 years.

In 1961, Marcel Guigal took over management due to his father’s sudden blindness. His wife Bernadette joined in 1973, and their son Philippe, now the Estate’s winemaker, continues the legacy with his wife Eve.

In 1995, they acquired the historic Chateau d’Ampuis, which serves as the Estate’s headquarters. Despite expansion, the family remains rooted in their small cellar where Etienne Guigal first worked.

Vintage after vintage, the Collection wines have become symbols which perfectly illustrate the family’s ethos of supreme quality. Careful ageing, together with the meticulous attention paid every day by Marcel and Philippe Guigal to the selection and blending processes, bring to the fore the consistency and excellence of the great appellations of the Rhône Valley.

The ‘Brune et Blonde’ wines derive their name from the vine leaves’ colours around harvest time in the Roasted Slope, Cote-Rotie.

This region’s granite bedrock contributes to the grapes’ health, warmth, and power. Despite the robustness, Guigal produces wines of elegance, complexity, and finesse.

The wine undergoes 36 months of ageing in the finest French oak, with a blend of mostly Syrah and a touch of Viognier. Co-fermentation enhances the wine’s concentration, finesse, and elegance.

Enjoy Guigal Cote-Rotie ‘Brune et Blonde’ with soft cheeses or red meat, and serve at room temperature.
