4 /5

Les vins de la famille Guigal sont parmi les plus renommés et les plus recherchés au monde. En effet, la maison possède certains des vignobles les plus prestigieux de la Côtes Du Rhône, ainsi qu'une passion et une expérience exceptionnelles dans l'art de produire du vin. Marcel et Philippe Guigal travaillent constamment avec un soin obsessionnel à toutes les étapes de la vinification : ce n'est pas un hasard si la devise de l'entreprise est "Nul Bien sans Peine".Leur Côtes du Rhône Rouge est particulièrement apprécié pour l'expression de la Syrah associée à celle du Grenache, qui ensemble donnent naissance à un vin complexe et de bonne persistance. Corsé et aux tanins doux, il se distingue par la sensation de chaleur qu'il laisse en bouche et par l'intensité de ses arômes. C'est un vin idéal pour accompagner les plats de viande, les fromages savoureux et les charcuteries.

Great wine. fast delivery. A lot of polystyrene packaging that could have been cardboard.

4/5

The outstanding flavour is of red roses, without any doubt.. The mild flavour and the chocolate were present.
The E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône is very good if served cold.
