From

Born from the sun-drenched slopes of Côte-Rôtie, the “Roasted Slope” region’s vintage reflects nearly 2,500 years of viticultural passion. These hills, nurtured by the Guigal estate’s meticulous craftsmanship, tell a tale of two daughters who carved out legend: the dark-haired Brune from iron-rich clays, and the light-locked Blonde set upon sandy whispers of limestone. This wine, with its ancient measure of co-planted Viognier, speaks fluently of its storied past and shimmering future.
