The motto of the Château d'Ampuis "Hard work reaps its rewards" illustrates the family philosophy of quality aimed at achieving the fullest and most consistent expression of the noble Rhône appellations.

For this wine The Guigal's work with vine growers in the Southern Rhône, where the vineyards, many of which sit either side of the Rhône river, consist of clay, limestone and alluvial soils. Yields in these vineyards are a low, around 2.3 tons per acre, and the average age of the vines is 25 years. Côtes du Rhône lays claim to having some of the oldest vineyards in the world, and is drenched in sunlight, resulting in wines with unmistakable flavours of the South.

This wine is drawn off the skins after a brief maceration and long temperature-controlled fermentation. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruity flavours.
