Château Mourgues du Grès

Château Mourgues du Grès is located in the heart of the Costières de Nîmes, in the southern part of the Rhône Valley. This 55-hectare estate extends over slopes and terraces whose terroir is made up of pebbles known as "grès". It enjoys a privileged position on the southern slopes of the Costière, between orchards and garrigues.

François Collard, an agricultural engineer and oenologist, cut his teeth at Château-Laffite in the Médoc. In 1990, he decided to return to the family estate of Château Mourgues du Grès to enhance the diversity of the terroir, drawing on the richness of the grape varieties. Precise work in the vineyard combined with a taste for innovation led to the first bottling with the 1993 vintage. The range of Château Mourgues du Grès wines was soon extended to include a gourmet rosé, anticipating a trend that is now well established. The quality and originality of Château Mourgues du Gr ès wines and the consistency of their vintages are regularly recognized by the national and foreign press. This gratitude has always spurred the owner to take up the challenge of producing wines of terroir, sincerity and pleasure with every vintage.
