"A true Côte Roannaise, typical of its granite soil, with lovely aromatic complexity. An excellent vintage!"

This cuvée, made from Gamay Saint Romain grapes, reveals aromas of red fruit, spices, menthol and liquorice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and round, with supple, mellow tannins. Perfectly controlled power, a true Favorite !

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated (guide 2025) 92/100 (Vintage 2022)

Domaine rated (guide 2025) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

Romain Payre has become one of the best ambassadors of Côte Roannaise Gamay, where he has excelled for several vintages now on his 21-hectare estate. The reference cuvée is best drunk young. The semi-aged Clos Du Puy and Intégrale cuvées are made from vines over 80 years old. A recommendable and reliable domaine, whatever the cuvée.

Domaine noté (guide 2025) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)

About the domain :

In 2017, Romain Paire took over the family estate, which he had run since 2005 with his parents Georges and Denise. The property, which comprises 21 ha of vines, is farmed on a mixed crop-livestock basis, and has been managed organically and biodynamically since 2010. One of the Côte-Roannais appellation's (very) strongest values.

Rated wine (guide 2024) 90/100 (Vintage 2022)

Domaine rated (guide 2025) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with good production levels, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Georges Paire, from a family of livestock farmers, began planting his vineyard in the 1970s. In 2005, his son Romain joined him and the planting continued, the vat room was modernized and the estate turned to organic farming. Today, the estate still keeps a small herd of Limousin cows. We appreciate his carefully-crafted, sincere wines: a modern, dynamic incarnation of the appellation.
