White Wine

Winemaker Description - Vintage 2024

This wine showcases one of the great secrets of the Guigal family: their specialization in the great white Rhône varieties. While only 8% of wines from the Rhône are white, Guigal's are a full 25% of their production; today they are the single largest producer of white wines in the region. It is a beautiful, seamless blend that represents unbelievable value.

The blend is 60% Viognier, highlighting Guigal's instrumental role in the revival of the grape. The wine is rich yet fresh, making it vibrant and food-friendly —an ideal pairing for seafood, poultry, creamy pasta, and more

La Vieille Ferme Blanc is a delightful white wine that captures the essence of a sunny day in Provence. With its bright and inviting pale gold hue, this wine immediately offers a sense of freshness. On the nose, vibrant aromas of citrus blossoms and juicy peaches intertwine, creating an enticing bouquet that hints at the flavors to come.

The palate is a true testament to the terroir, with crisp acidity that dances alongside flavors of ripe pear, green apple, and a subtle touch of tropical fruit. This well-balanced blend brings together Grenache Blanc, Vermentino, Roussanne, and Bourboulenc, each contributing to the wine's complexity. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving a lingering impression of zesty lemon zest and a touch of minerality. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with light seafood dishes or fresh salads, the La Vieille Ferme Blanc 2022 offers an authentic taste of Provence in every sip.

Expert Review - Vintage 2022

Jeb Dunnuck 90 Points | Mostly Viognier (55%) but with other permitted white varieties, the 2022 Côtes Du Rhône Blanc has a medium-bodied, vibrant, pure style to go with lovely peach and tangerine-like aromas and flavors. Drink this outstanding, classy white over the coming 2-3 years. I never cease to be amazed at the quality of the Côtes du Rhône white from this team, especially given the quantities produced.

Yellow gold, clear and brilliant. Freshness on the nose marked by the distinctive aromas of Viognier; white flowers, apricot, acacia and white peach. On the palate it is fruity with plenty of richness and body. A well-rounded wine with elegance, strength and balance.

James Suckling 92 Points:A juicy, dense and aromatic Condrieu. The nose reveals notes of baked lemons, white peaches and fresh flowers. Medium-bodied with a dense core of white fruit and cooked lemons. Caressing texture, with a well-rounded, mellow and agreeable finish.

92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Mainly crafted from purchased grapes, the 2022 Condrieu from Guigal is always a delicate, elegant rendition of this appellation. Evoking aromas of ripe apricots, honeysuckle, pear and spices, it's medium to full-bodied, round and sappy with a seamless, enveloping texture, concluding in a long, delicate and ethereal finish enhanced by gastronomic bitterness. Consistently well-crafted, this Condrieu is engaging and quintessential to its origin.

Its color is a golden-yellow-green. It exhales fine scents of flowers and white-fleshed fruits. Its characteristic is a well-balanced structure, beginning with a round and fruity taste of peach and apricot and ending on a fresh and persistent note of citrus fruits. Its best aromatic expression is immediately reached in the first year and it continues for two-to-three years.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2024

The Wine Advocate 92 Points | Gently iodine-inflected and lively, the 2024 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc from Clos du Mont Olivet reveals aromas of white fruits, flowers and confit citrus. Medium- to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it is elegantly framed, with a concentrated mid-palate enlivened by delicate acidity—remarkable for a wine from this appellation. Primarily composed of Clairette and Roussanne, this is a stunning effort.

Jeb Dunnuck 92 Points | Based on 40% Clairette, 30% Roussanne, 14% Bourboulenc, and smaller amounts of other permitted white varieties, the 2024 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc was partially vinified and aged seven months in 20% new French oak, with the balance in stainless steel and clay jars. It offers very classy and classic aromas of pure stone fruits, white flowers, crushed stone, and some sappy, minty garrigue nuances. Medium-bodied and balanced, it shows integrated acidity and outstanding length on the finish.

93 Points Decanter | Quince and pear. Rich and ripe but not overly so, it's silky on the palate, fairly high in alcohol, enjoyably full and opulent, with a fresh core. Includes a new parcel this year of 70-year-old Marsanne, so is now around 90% Marsanne, 10% Roussanne. The rest is a mix of 60-year-old and seven-year-old vines. Vinified in oak.
