Château d'Ampuis

Game, red meat and cheese.

Land with 24 centuries of history behind it worked and preserved by three generations of winemakers with family values at their core and a commitment to an illustrious terrain that produces prestigious wines. This in a nutshell is the Maison Guigal. Right from the beginning the motto “No Pains No Gains” underpins the promise made to Etienne Guigal. A commitment to work together to follow in his footsteps to communicate the family’s passion and create so many emotions. Today Marcel and Philippe along with their wives are the guardians of this exceptional domain which combines history devotion and a sense of togetherness. A breath of inspiration for generations to come.

The methods of viticulture are always in keeping with an omnipresent respect for the environment. Moderate, controlled prevention against illness and vine parasites allows the grapes cultivated on the estate to reveal fully the complexity of the most exceptional terroirs of the Northern Rhône.
