About the estate:
In 1998, Roger Mézy replanted 3.5 hectares of vineyards on the beautiful terroir of the town of Triadou for his son Frédéric, who was then a physics and chemistry student with a passion for vines and wine. Frédéric went on to take over the estate, soon joined by his wife Pauline. Following various acquisitions, including several old plots, the estate now spans 58 hectares, spread across different sectors of the Pic-Saint-Loup appellation and cultivated using biodynamic practices since 2007. The geological variations—limestone scree, marl, and rounded pebbles—allow for creative blending. The pronounced oakiness and aggressive extraction of the early days are a thing of the past; today, the aging process is much more balanced, the wines are easy to drink, and the textures are more refined.

Review and comment by Mr. GILLES D. Published on January 18, 2026
Medium-bodied, this Pic-Saint-Loup offers beautiful volume, great concentration, and pronounced flavors of perfectly ripe dark fruits, with peppery and toasty nuances that blend together in a dense, firm texture underpinned by freshness. The present yet silky tannins lend a refreshing bounce to the finish. This Gamin paired perfectly with keftas and cinnamon-spiced semolina. Rating = 3.8.
