Winery notes (2020 Vintage)
"Deep dark red and shiny dress. Nose of black fruits marked by notes of spices. Full- bodied wine, full and racy. Tannins rounded, very coated but present in the mouth. This wine is distinguished by its size, heat and aromatic intensity. Complete wine, good persistence. Elegance and finesse due to a nice balance between tannins and fruits."

5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, April 2025 (2020 Vintage)
"Beautifully composed and styled, the wine shows dark plum, floral, mixed spice, and toasted nut aromas on the nose. The palate displays juicy fruit intensity with a plump mouthfeel and fleshy texture, leading to a lengthy, robust finish. At its best: now to 2029."

90/100 Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com (2020 Vintage)
"An impressive Cotes-du-Rhone with stacks of blackberry and black raspberry fruit wrapped around a core of moderately dry tannins on the bold palate. Long self-confidently dry finish. A cuvee of 50% syrah, 45% grenache and 5% mourvedre. Drink now."

90/100 Joe Czerwinski, RobertParker.com, Wine Advocate, May 2024 (2020 Vintage)
"Significantly impacted by its elevated Syrah content, Guigal's 2020 Cotes du Rhone boasts expressive aromas of blackberries and blueberries, backed by ample black cherries. It's full-bodied yet supple and fluid, easy to drink and enjoy, with enough black olive and earth notes to ground it and keep it from being a simple fruit bomb."

90/100 Decanter, November 2023 (2020 Vintage)
"Modern, lifted and a bit heady, but attractive and evocative. Black cherry inkiness segues into a dense palate where all the fruit is crammed into a structured body with drying tannins. Herbs and stones hemmed in by a firm grip. A good all rounder."

Andy Howard MW, JancisRobinson.com, October 2024 (2020 Vintage)
"Fleshy, ripe, dark fruits dominate the palate which has no harsh edges. Decent value for a benchmark producer of Côtes du Rhône in the 2020 vintage. Very nice oak in the background, freshness on the palate, fine tannins."
