Etienne Guigal is an absolute legend of the Northern Rhône Valley, known for its high quality reds and whites. He founded the estate in 1946, which is now managed by his son Marcel and his grandson Philippe. Located in Ampuis, it produces icons such as La Landonne, La Mouline and La Turque, some of the greatest Côtes-Rôties.
La Doriane is the prestigious cuvée of the equally prestigious "Maison Guigal". Created back in 1994, this Condrieu contains 100% of Viognier, and is fully de-stemmed during harvest, pressed, and then spends 12 months in oak barrels. The nose is intense, with aromas of peach and white flowers, and tastes quite intense and full body.
