With its cherry red color, L'Intégrale reveals a beautiful expression of Gamay on the nose, fine and elegant, evoking spicy and fruity notes. A rich and structured Loire red, to which barrel aging brings a beautiful roundness and well-integrated oak. A lovely bottle to serve at the table!

Rated estate (2026 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Romain Payre has become one of the finest ambassadors for Gamay from the Côte Roannaise, where he has excelled for several vintages on his 21-hectare estate. The benchmark cuvée is best enjoyed young, while the Clos Du Puy and Intégrale cuvées are medium-aged wines made from vines over 80 years old. This is a highly recommended and reliable estate, whatever the cuvée.

The 23 hectares of vines are organically and biodynamically farmed. The estate, which covers 23 hectares of vineyards, is used for mixed farming (beef cattle) and has been run organically and biodynamically since 2010. It is one of the (very) safe bets of the Côte-Roannaise appellation.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Georges Paire, who comes from a family of farmers, began planting his vineyard in the 1970s. In 2005, his son Romain joined him and the plantations continued, the winery was modernized, and the estate turned to organic farming. Today, the estate still has a small herd of Limousin cows. We appreciate these carefully crafted, sincere wines: a modern and dynamic embodiment of the appellation.

Note and opinion by Mr. BERNARD L. Published on 04/29/2022

A Côtes Roannaises that doesn't play on lightness. Somewhat atypical for a Saint Romain Gamay, it will surely need to be left in the cellar for another 2 or 3 years.
