winemaker's notes:

The hallmark of Chateau d'Ampuis is an unbelievably seductive perfume full of sweet red fruits, black fruits and spices, and an elegance despite the intense concentration of fruit. Chateau d'Ampuis defines what a great wine should be with its beautiful balance, complexity and length.

alcohol by volume: 13.5%
critical acclaim:

"In this difficult vintage, Guigal's Chateau Ampuis bottling shines. The kinky nose features exotic notes of celery seed, cracked pepper, hickory smoke and mixed berries, while in the mouth the wine shows ample fullness and intensity without losing any of the silky character that makes Cote Rôtie special. Drink now–2020."

Wine Enthusiast

"Bright purple. Lively and fragrant, displaying aromas of redcurrant, cherry, pipe tobacco and dried violet. Juicy and focused, with good depth and sweetness to its red fruit preserve flavors. Shows a refreshingly bitter quality on the penetrating finish, which lingers with impressive vibrancy and length. This wine shows the graceful side of Cote-Rotie and drinks very well right now. Incidentally, the 2007 version of this wine is still quite primary and in need of at least another five years of patience based on a bottle that Guigal showed me. "
