Guigal’s Vignes de l’Hospice comes from the vineyard that gives the Saint-Joseph appellation its name and is one of the finest sites in the Northern Rhone Valley. This steeply terraced Syrah vineyard used to be divided into three but Guigal now owns majority of this parcel in order to restore perception of Saint-Joseph as an appellation of utmost quality. In fact Guigal is often asked when they will produce a fourth “LaLa” and their response is that their fourth single vineyard phenomenon of the Northern Rhone is already being produced: the Vignes de l’Hospice._x000D_

Dark red in color its intense nose is dominated by black fruits and delicate aromas of new wood. The wine continues to open on the palate delivering steeped plum licorice blackberry and spice notes that continue to linger. The tannins are powerful but remain fine and elegant. A beautiful wine to age for years to come.
