Expert opinion

3*Star rating (High-quality production, a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

Jean Gardiès took over the family estate in 1990, focusing from the outset on the reds, which quickly became benchmarks for the region. Since then, he has regularly delivered a fine interpretation of his Vingrau terroir, cultivating a 35-hectare vineyard with a highly fragmented plot structure that is reflected in the philosophy of the cuvées. For the past eight years, the emphasis has been on vinification as close as possible to the fruit, with less extraction and more subtlety. Whether you're looking for dry wines or vins doux naturels, you'll easily find what you're looking for here, provided you stretch your purse a little.

Wine rated (guide 2023) 93/100

Domaine rated (guide 2022) 2*Stars (These great estates, often endowed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the domain :

Jean Gardiés now works four-handed with his son Victor. With his classic style, unanimously respected by his peers, Jean took over the family estate in 1990. He favors the production of red wines in the Côtes du Roussillon appellation, sharply reducing the production of sweet wines, which now represent only 4 hectares of the vineyard. Spread over different soil types, the reds are among the best in the region, with good volume on the palate and highly precise flavors. Progress has also been made with the whites, which are now matured in 600-liter demi-muids to preserve their mineral character. Exemplary regularity, constant care in both vineyard and cellar, and the finesse now displayed by all the wines, guarantee the domaine a choice place among the region's small elite.
