Founded by Etienne Guigal in 1946, Domaine Guigal is a renowned winery in the Rhone Valley with vineyards spread across the most prestigious appellations in the area, including Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage and Condrieu. Since 1961, the company has been led by Marcel, Etienne's son, who is now supported by his son Philippe. Over the years, the Domaine has also acquired other properties such as Château d’Ampuis, in 1995.
Domaine Guigal’s Hermitage Rouge is a benchmark among the region’s wines. The Syrah grapes are harvested manually from vines of around 30 years old located in Beaumes, Méal, Bessards, and Hermite on calcareous-clayey and sandy-gravelly soils. After vinification in stainless steel, the finished wine is aged in oak barrels (50% new).
In the glass, the wine displays a splendid intense ruby color with brilliant purple highlights. Its aromatic profile is broad and fragrant with notes of small red fruits and spices interspersed with light woody notes. On the palate, it is intense and full-bodied, concentrated and juicy with firm and well-integrated tannins and a long finish that recalls licorice and spices. It is the ideal wine to serve with lamb tagine or canard confit.

Guigal Hermitage Rouge 2018
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
