E. Guigal Gigondas 2021

It’s once in a blue moon that we’re able to score anything from one of France’s most famous and beloved wineries, E. Guigal – let alone secure an offer that gives us the best pricing in the country. But today, from the rock-solid 2020 vintage in the Southern Rhône comes a unanimous Gigondas standout from one of the all-time greats.

Within the Rhône, nobody is as world-renowned for quality and excellence as Etienne Guigal. The winery is easily one of the most recognizable, with their single-vineyard Côte-Rôties fetching nearly $1,000/bottle and always receiving massive scores. Every year, their wines are sensational across the board – but in a high-scoring vintage like their 2021 bottling, this Gigondas delivers such extraordinary quality that it rivals Châteauneuf-du-Papes costing three to four times the price!
