“Intense and fruity!”
A pronounced fruity nose with notes of raspberry, blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, and cherry, followed by hints of spice, garrigue, leather, cocoa, and flowers. A beautiful attack on the palate, with silky fruit and a lovely, voluptuous texture. Fine, silky tannins lead to a lingering, flavorful finish. A beautiful balance of acidity and body in this perfect expression of the terroir!

Wine rated (2025 guide) 93/100 (2023 vintage)
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 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.
