Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 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 :
Château des Tourettes has a lovely vineyard on the Apt plateau. Maine and Jean-Marie Guffens have restructured almost the entire vineyard, asserting their determination to create a beautiful terroir by replanting with massal selections. The wines are faithful to Jean-Marie Guffens' style, always offering the right balance between ripe grapes and mineral tension on the finish. Jean-Marie and Maine refocus production on whites, and put an end to the Guffens du Sud négoce.
