Description

The richness and elegance of an IGP Côtes Catalanes red wine

The estate

Located 20 kilometres northwest of Perpignan, Domaine Gauby is an unmissable name in Roussillon wines. With a surface area of around 85 hectares, the estate's terroir is made up of 45 hectares of vines, some of which are over a hundred years old, as well as 40 hectares of meadows, oak forests and scrubland. Situated at an altitude of between 150 and 200 metres and overlooking the sea, the vines benefit from a wild, arid and steep environment, favouring deep rooting in soils composed of limestone, marl and schist.

Concerned about preserving its environment, this Roussillon estate manages its vineyard without chemical and synthetic products in favour of natural products (plants, essential oils, compost, etc.).

The vineyard

A major name among the great wines of Roussillon, Domaine Gauby oversees a vineyard planted on a mosaic of terroirs. Between limestone, schist, rolled pebbles and clay-limestone soils, these 90-year-old vines are cultivated organically and in polyculture. The estate has been certified organic since 1996, and biodynamic since 2001.

The wine

Calcinaires rouge is an IGP Côtes Catalanes wine that stems from vines cultivated on a limestone soil, as is indicated by its name which means "limestone earth" in Catalan.  

Winemaking and ageing

Vinification was 100% natural. Ageing of 10 months mostly in tuns, with some younger plots (around 20%) aged in steel.
