Domaine de la Gayère
At the head of Domaine de la Gayère, Christèle Plantevin, the fifth generation of this family estate founded in 1902, now cultivates 50 hectares of vines in Cairanne. This small southern village in the Haut Vaucluse, a stone's throw from the Enclave des Papes, reconciles the northern Rhône and its Syrah with the southern Grenache and Mourvèdre. In 2016, the producers of Côtes-du-Rhône Village Cairanne obtained their passage to Appelation d'Origine Contôlée Cairanne. The first vintage produced in theCairanne appellation is 2015, for both reds and whites.

The vineyards of Domaine de la Gayère blossom on a terroir of garrigue, red clay and pebbles, giving power and complexity to the wines, in keeping with the typicality of this southern appellation. 
Half the vines are over 30 years old, and some over 65. True to the hallmarks of the region's wines, Domaine de la Gayère blends the traditional grape varieties of Grenache, Carignan, Mourvèdre and Syrah to give the red wines of the Côtes du Rhône and Cairanne appellations their richness and typicality. The domaine's white wines are a confidential production and are blends of Clairette and Bourboulenc.

2*Étoiles Hachette

"Top value for money"

"Grenache noir and Mourvèdre get on wonderfully well in this cuvée, dark in color but luminous on the nose with its crisp notes of grenadine and blackcurrant. It's equally delightful on the palate, which is full-bodied, round on the attack, warm, bursting with jammy fruit, and tightened on the finish by well-proportioned tannins. Powerful, greedy, complete, the jury succumbs to the charm of Galante". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020)

Domaine de la Gayère - Cuvée de Chris 2018

1*Étoile Hachette

"This special cuvée, which was Favorite in the 2009 vintage, returns to us in fine form in a more complicated year. More elegant than powerful, the spice-tinged fruit aromas permeate a beautifully designed, well-balanced palate, supported by mellow tannins and preserved freshness. A good classic.

immediate pleasure

Our Viognier, a recent cuvée from the estate, will perfectly match the expectations of aficionados of this grape variety! Round and generous, the nose is intense with aromas of white and yellow fruits (nectarines, apricots) and a hint of lemon. The palate is voluptuous and rich, with an enveloping, comforting fatness! A white for every occasion, to be enjoyed chilled!
