April 17, 2024 - A magnum donated from the Guigal cellars. Fruit came off La Pòmmiere, the first vineyard Etienne worked at the age of 14. The wine spent 36 months in two new oak barrels. It has never been commercially released and is offered at charity auctions to raise funds for good causes. The wine is inky and powerful. There are black fruits a plenty and a strong ironstone character. It has light florals and some wood spice. It is deep and chewy, finishing with chalky grip and possessing incredible length of flavour.

March 12, 2016 - 2005 E. GUIGAL HOMMAGE a` ETIENNE GUIGAL COTE ROTIE- 750 ml; this very limited released bottling came from a good friend who is an importer of all things Guigal; the wine is composed of a 2 barrel blend of the best of the top vintages produced; after having a plethora of wines throughout the evening, thankfully my palate remained discerning and open to more exposures; I jumped in with both feet and with all sensory receptors in tact and discovered the epitome of power and elegance, depth and complexity along with grace and charm; perfectly balanced, the pepper and spice seasoning highlighted the dark, vibrant fruit and continued on through a long extended finish; amazing wine and a rare and treasured experienc
