“The 2007 red is in the vein of a great Pinot Noir, with its moving transparency of flavors and its subtle, thirst-quenching bitterness... ” (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2010 - RVF) “A wine with magnificent, very round tannins; it is full-bodied and beautifully balanced.” ( Le Grand Guide des Vins de France 2010 - Bettane & Desseauve).

Rated estate (2024 guide) 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)

About the estate:

Since his early days in the mid-1980s, Gérard Gauby has been an inspiring, demanding, and passionate winemaker. His vines are cultivated with love and respect for the plants and the ecosystem. He has revealed to the world the complexity and potential of the Calce terroir, with its limestone and iron-rich schist soils. The winemaker has also successfully evolved his style toward wines that are less heavily aged, purer, and more airy. Alongside his son, he continues this quest, and his vintages are gaining in expression and richness. The whites are of great integrity, with superb longevity and masterfully controlled aging. The reds are pure and deep. The 2021 vintages are approaching the pinnacle of excellence in both styles.
