"Intensely delicious and fruity!"
A pronounced fruity nose with notes of raspberry, blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, cherry, followed by spices, garrigue, leather, cocoa, and flowers. A beautiful attack on the palate, with silky fruit and a very lovely, voluptuous texture. Fine, silky tannins lead to a long, flavorful finish. A beautiful balance of acidity and texture in this perfect expression of the terroir!

Wine rating (2025 guide) 93/100 (2023 vintage)
Rated estate (2024 guide) 3 stars (These represent the excellence of French vineyards. The best terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical moment.)
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.
