Purchased by the Guigal family in 1995, Château d’Ampuis is gracefully situated amidst the Rhône River and the historic vineyards of Côte-Rôtie. Sourced from seven of the estate`s most remarkable parcels, Château d’Ampuis is primarily crafted from Syrah, complemented by a touch of Viognier, and matures in oak barrels for an extended period. The 2005 vintage exhibits a spiciness and a focused, refreshing character, along with a lively acidity. It bears a resemblance to the finesse of Burgundian wines, featuring a savoury, spicy, and well-integrated tannic structure.
