“A robust Côtes Catalanes, full of character!”

“The white Grenache from Coume Gineste expresses itself with great finesse. The minerality, which is often so hard to detect, makes a subtle appearance here.” (The RVF Guide 2026)

Wine rated (2026 guide) 94/100

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 wine:

The white Grenache from Coume Gineste displays great finesse. The minerality, which is often so hard to detect, makes a subtle appearance here.

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 ethereal. Alongside his son, he continues this quest, and his wines 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 vintage approaches the pinnacle of excellence in both styles.
