RVF
"A full-bodied, vibrant, fresh, and deep bottle."
"The old Macabeu vines express themselves with a certain richness in the Vieilles Vignes white cuvée. The salty freshness of the finish is invigorating and makes the wine easy to drink." (Le Guide RVF 2026). This is a great classic among Roussillon whites, truly timeless.

About the estate:
Since his beginnings 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 ferruginous schist soils. The winemaker has also successfully evolved his style towards less mature, purer and more airy wines. Accompanied by his son, he continues this quest, with his vintages gaining in expression and deliciousness. The whites are very straightforward, with superb longevity and controlled aging. The reds are pure and deep. The 2021 vintage is reaching new heights in both colors.
