93/100
RVF
“A rich, vibrant, fresh, and deep fragrance.”
“The old Macabeu vines express themselves with a certain richness in the Vieilles Vignes white cuvée. The briny freshness of the finish is invigorating and makes the wine easy to drink.” (Le Guide RVF 2026). This is a true classic among Roussillon whites—a wine that never goes out of style.

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.
