Le Grapillon d’Or

Since 1806

The Provencal Mas of the Domaine du Grapillon d’or, nestled at the foot of the famous Dentelles de Montmirail, was built in 1806 although the Chauvet family has been present in Gigondas, in the heart of Provence since 1630. From that date on, numerous developments were carried out by successive generations.

A know-how herited for a long time …

More

Since 1970, the estate has been successfully managed by my father, Bernard CHAUVET (8th generation) and I decided to join him, about 30 years ago, in order to take charge of the winemaking and management of the estate.

Our 14 hectare Gigondas vineyard, which is mainly located on the slopes, is mainly composed of Grenache and Syrah. The property also includes 2.60 hectares of Vacqueyras and 3.3 hectares of Vin de Pays, MERLOT CALADOC grape varieties that we vinify only as red wines.

All our wines are “vegan” and come from a selection of small plots which give rise to wines of great concentration and suitable for aging.

 Trustindex vérifie que la source originale de l'avis est Google. Un acceuil 5 étoiles, j'y reviendrai plus tard. En vacances dans la région, je cherchais un domaine familial et abordable. Ne vous fiez pas aux apparences, j'ai cru que la cave était fermée, mais non. C'est juste qu'avec la soleil du Sud, on a du mal à voir si il y a du monde a l'intérieur. J'ai pu déguster plusieurs de leur vins, avec une explication pour chaque bouteille. Pour commencer un merlot à prix très doux pour progressivement monter en gamme et complexité gustative.

Quant à l'accueil, la personne en charge nous a gentiment proposé de faire venir nos 2 chiens pour qu'il se rafraîchissent (la cave est climatisée) et nous a proposé un carton adapté à notre voiture déjà bien chargée (un carton plat).

Bref des vins agréables et un accueil parfait. Ça donne déjà envie d'y retourner !

Tous les vins de ce domaine sont d'un rapport qualité/prix exceptionnel, de l'IPG aux vins d'Excellence, blanc, rouge et rosé. Ils font la joie de nos palais.
