"Made from an ancient and forgotten grape variety, Gibi, this white wine will surprise you with its delicacy and acidity".

"Gibi is this ancient grape variety found in the fabulous plant heritage of Vivien Roussignol's grandfather. Here, blended with Grenache blanc and Grenache gris, it gives notes of citrus, thyme and a full mouthfeel that finishes on a salivating impression." (La Revue du Vin de France - May 2024) Discover this wine full of surprises!

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated (guide 2024) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

This recent estate is run by two agronomic engineers, including a former director of a Fitou winery who took over the family vines from the cooperative. After generous 2016s and great successes in 2017, we noticed the high level of Jalouses in 2018, a benchmark wine from schist terroirs. With the 2019s continuing on this impressive path, we're happy to award them a third star.

Estate rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (Outstanding wine)

About the domain :

Vivien Roussignol and Marie Toussaint set up in 2011 with a single hectare, of goblet-trimmed vines grown on schist slopes. They gradually expanded the vineyard, favoring old vines and keeping alive a rich heritage of grape varieties (some twenty today). The 12 ha are undergoing organic conversion in 2019.
