Domaine Guigal was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in Ampuis, a small ancient village and the cradle of the Côte-Rôtie appellation. It is home to a unique vineyard where vines and wine have been celebrated for 2400 years. Arriving in 1924 at the age of 14, the founder vinified 67 harvests in Côte-Rôtie and took part at the beginning of his career in the development of Etablissements Vidal-Fleury.



In 1961, although very young, Marcel Guigal took over the management of the House alongside his father, who was suddenly stricken with total blindness. He was joined in 1973 by his wife Bernadette and worked together to develop the family business. In 1975, their son Philippe was born, today the company's oenologist. Accompanied by his wife Eve, he represents the third generation and continues the family work in the service of the Great Wines of the Rhone Valley.

Since 1946, hard work and perseverance have borne fruit, and certain stages have borne witness to this, such as the purchase of Etablissements Vidal-Fleury in the early 1980s, which still retains full commercial autonomy and its own identity.

Ten years later, the year 1995 was marked by the acquisition of the famous Château d'Ampuis, a historical and oenological landmark located on the banks of the Rhône, whose long history is directly linked to the Côte-Rôtie Appellation.



The Domaine Guigal was embellished in 2001 by the takeover of the former Jean-Louis Grippat estate and the Domaine de Vallouit, allowing it to consolidate its position within the Côte-Rôtie Appellation but also in Hermitage, Saint-Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage.

Since the summer of 2003, Maison Guigal, determined to always improve its knowledge of wine and its surrounding environment, has embarked on a brand new adventure: the Tonnellerie. This traditional and ancestral work allows us to ensure an additional technical mastery in the charming historical setting of Château d'Ampuis.

In March 2006, the Guigal family bought Domaine de Bonserine and supported it in its development, which remains independent from that of Domaine Guigal.



The purchase of Château de Nalys in Châteauneuf-du-Pape in July 2017 marks an important step in the history of Maison Guigal, which is thus established in the southern Rhône Valley, Nalys becoming the southern flagship of the family.

We are not so far from the first square meters of the cellar where Etienne Guigal used to work, but it is now in three hectares of cellars and galleries that barrels, tuns and vats abound. The history and soul of the Guigal family are very present in these places which secretly house exceptional wines.

At the same time, this family selects, matures and markets, with ardor and passion, the greatest appellations of the Rhone Valley.
