Exclusive E. Guigal Wine Dinner at OPUS, Bangsar

7 October 2009 10 Comments

Some might said I over use the word, EXCLUSIVE. Well to me, it is the right word to describe the E. Guigal Wine Dinner at OPUS, Bangsar. Let me introduce E. Guigal Wine  in brief:

The Guigal domain was founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal in the ancient village of Ampuis, home of the wines of the Côte-Rôtie. In these vineyards of over 2400 years old you can still see the small terraced walls characteristic of the Roman period. Etienne Guigal arrived in this region in 1923 at the age of 14.

He made wine over 67 vintages and, at the beginning of his career, participated in the development of the Vidal-Fleury establishment.


Despite his young age, Marcel Guigal took over from his father in 1961 and his hard work and perseverance enabled the Guigals to buy out Vidal-Fleury in 1984, although the establishment retains its own identity and commercial autonomy.

In 2000, the Guigals purchased the Jean-Louis GRIPPAT estate in Saint-Joseph and Hermitage as well as the Domaine de VALLOUIT in Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Saint-Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage.
