Just arrived! - Our small parcel of the irresistible new releases from Chateau Mourgues du Gres, a 40 hectare estate in the Costieres de Nimes which is owned & meticulously run by Anne and Francois Collard. Francois is an agricultural engineer and trained oenologue who original worked at Chateau Lafite. Their wines, traditionally fermented in tank are wonderfully expressive and pure in flavour.
The terroir here is made up of 'de galets' called gres, similar to Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
2010 is an outstanding vintage for the red wine; Les Galets Rouge and will give immense pleasure in it's youth, and over the next five years. The Galets Dores Blanc and Fleur d’Eglantine Rose are always favourites of ours. The 2011s are beautifully fresh and aromatic with perfect balance between zesty fruit and fine, citrus acidity.
Appealing, versatile & classy wines to enjoy throughout the summer if we ever get one!.

Free UK (mainland) delivery for total orders of twelve bottles or more.
