2022 E. Guigal Condrieu, Rhône Valley, France
ABOUT THE WINE
Sourced from steep, terraced vineyards along the granite slopes of Condrieu, the 2022 vintage is 100% Viognier, harvested at full physiological ripeness to capture the grape’s opulent aromatics and natural texture. Guigal’s Condrieu is vinified in a mix of stainless steel and used oak barrels, with lees aging to add creaminess without overshadowing the varietal character. The vintage reflects a warm growing season tempered by diurnal shifts that preserved freshness and aromatic complexity. A textbook expression of Condrieu, it is both indulgent and precise—ideal alongside dishes like lobster with saffron beurre blanc, roasted chicken with apricots, or a delicate cheese like Brillat-Savarin.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
E. Guigal is one of the Rhône Valley’s most iconic and influential producers, founded in 1946 by Étienne Guigal and now helmed by the third generation of the family. Based in Ampuis, the estate is known for its meticulous vineyard work, long élevage, and unwavering commitment to quality across every level—from entry-level Côtes-du-Rhône to legendary Côte-Rôtie “La La” wines. In Condrieu, Guigal helped resurrect the near-extinct Viognier grape in the post-war era, producing benchmark wines that redefined the appellation’s potential. Their Condrieu remains a reference point for the region—generous, precise, and deeply expressive of the granite-rich soils and sun-drenched slopes of this singular Northern Rhône terroir.
