Domaine des Garriguettes
Just outside Avignon, the Garriguettes estate is located in the heart of the appellation Côtes-du-Rhône Villages Gadagnein the Provencal village of Châteauneuf-de-Gadagne. 


Sébastien Clément, a young winemaker, trained and directed winemaking in various countries around the world before joining the family adventure. Today, he manages the 24-hectare Garriguettes estate, handed down by his grandfather Jean and his father Jean-Louis. The Garriguettes vineyard was the very first in the Villages Gadagne appellation to convert to organic farming, and is now certified biodynamic (Demeter). Its hillside location, its terroir of rounded pebbles, its Mediterranean climate and its exposure to the Mistral wind, guarantee a naturally healthy harvest, give the Garriguettes estate the expression of the typical character of a true terroir. 


Perched on the rolling pebble plateau of Châteauneuf-de-Gadagne, 15 km from Avignon, this small vineyard blessed by wind and sun has historically been renowned for the richness of its wines. The AOP Côtes_du-Rhône Villages Gadagne is: a small appellation of 250 hectares with 170 h of vines; a vineyard that the Popes of Avignon took possession of (milestones still in place) located 15km east of Avignon on the 1st hill; a plateau at 115m altitude made up of rolled pebbles on a bed of ochre-red clay with filtering power that ensures the water needs of the vines even in the hottest of summers; only 6 estates and a cooperative cellar. A little jewel of the Rhône Valley to discover!

"A good baguette, charcuterie and a bottle of Béret Bleu!"

This is the cuvée "Hommage" to the winemaker's grandfather, who wore the blue beret, made entirely from Cinsault, described as the "Pinot du Sud" by Jean Clément. The wine is an invitation to conviviality, with red fruit at its core, supple tannins and an incredible freshness! Serve slightly chilled.

"Head for the stars with this fresh, floral white!

This white Côtes-du-Rhône awakens the senses with very floral aromas enveloped by a light roundness and notes of white-fleshed fruit. It finishes with a bouquet of freshness and minerality.
