Les galets Dorés
A fruity and mineral gourmet wine
The ‘Galets’ are reminiscent of our terroir of rounded stones known as ‘grès’. Sculpted by the moraine of the Rhône glacier in the Quaternary Period, they characterise the Costières de Nîmes in the south of the Rhône Valley. This cuvee comes in all three colours; their robes resemble the shades of our white stones (Galets Dorés), pink stones (Galets Rosés) and red stones (Galets Rouges). The minerality contributes to the balance of the wine.

Appearance
Clear yellow with flashes of gold.

Bouquet
Fruity (citrus and
white-fleshed
fruit), floral (broom
shrub) and mineral
(flint) notes.

Palate
A quick attack with
citric notes with a
beautiful aromatic
persistence. A silky
and cool texture.
A salty note,
reminiscent of the sea
breeze, makes up part
of its finesse.

Food Pairing
Brandade de
Nîmes, tapas,
pineapple roast
pork, goat cheese.
Serve at about
10°C.

Ageing
Enjoy now or over
three years.
AOP Costières de Nîmes Blanc
Union of Grenache Blanc, Roussanne and Vermentino
North-facing parcels make a ‘cool’ terroir in the
Mediterannean climate, which gives a lot of vivacity to the
wine. Similarly, controlling the temperatures during the
entire cycle of fermentation and ageing allows the wine
to conserve its fruitiness and freshness.
The wines are vinified without sulphur for more purity
and fruitiness. A slight addition at bottling to assure the
stability of the wine.

Guide Hachette 2023 - 1 étoile
"Ces galets dorés célèbrent le mariage réussi entre un sol de galets roulés d’une
teinte dorée et les quatres cépages - roussanne, vermentino, grenache et viognier - qui
composent cette cuvée. Élevée sans le soutien du bois, elle offre nez flatteur de fruit à
noyau, de freesia et de noisette verte. La bouche ne déçoit pas : de la vivacité, un beau
volume, des arômes gourmands et une fine astringence pleine de relief. Ce joli blanc
dynamique pourra prendre place de l’apéritif au fromage."

Guide la Tulipe Rouge 2021 - 2 Tulipes
«Citron, acacia, fleurs blanches, plutôt léger en bouche, ce vin privilégie un profil enjoué
et rafraîchissant. Objectif atteint, avec un joli toucher. On prend du plaisir».
