The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Renowned for its classic winemaking precision, Domaine Gardiés—a two-star estate in the RVF Guide—is a cornerstone of Roussillon.

The palate is both lively and smooth, finding a wonderful balance between finesse and substance. This skillful composition makes it irresistible as an aperitif or with grilled dishes.
