The vines of La Doriane are planted on steep, granite-rich slopes, typical of Condrieu, with optimal southern exposure. These conditions allow for ideal ripening of the Viognier grapes, concentrating the aromas while preserving freshness and tension. Manual labor is essential on these steep slopes, guaranteeing a high-quality harvest.

Owner and history

Domaine Guigal is run by the Guigal family, with Philippe Guigal at the helm for several years. Heir to a family tradition passed down through three generations, he perpetuates the commitment to quality and the deep connection to the terroir. His vision is based on precision, respect for the vines, and the constant pursuit of excellence, placing Guigal at the pinnacle of the Rhône's great wines.

Vinification and aging

At Domaine Guigal, winemaking relies on meticulous fermentations and precise temperature controls, ensuring purity and aromatic concentration. Aging takes place in barrels, adding complexity and roundness.
The 2019 Doriane is aged for 8 months in new oak barrels, developing its mellow woody notes and velvety texture, without masking the brightness of the fruit and the floral freshness.
