The story of E. Guigal began in 1946 when Etienne Guigal, a visionary winemaker with a passion for the Rhône Valley, started his own wine business. Today, the Guigal family is recognized as one of the most influential and respected winemaking families in France. Their philosophy is rooted in a deep respect for tradition, a commitment to excellence, and a tireless pursuit of perfection.
At the heart of the Guigal collection are the iconic wines of the Northern Rhône, including the legendary Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, and Saint-Joseph. These wines are made from the region's most revered grape varieties, Syrah and Viognier, and are renowned for their complexity, intensity, and age-worthiness. In addition to their Northern Rhône wines, Guigal also produces exceptional wines from the Southern Rhône, including the Côtes du Rhône and Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
