DESCRIPTION:

Situated in the foothills of the Pyrenees, surrounded by its vineyards, Domaine Gayda is a new destination in the Languedoc, 25km south-west of Carcassonne, in the village of Brugairolles. Domaine Gayda has a passion for the traditional ‘cepages’ grown across the many diverse soils and climates of their vineyards.  While the grapes are rooted in tradition, the winery itself is all about the ‘new’, with investments in state-of-the-art equipment and technology.

TASTING NOTES:

Anthony Gismondi ~ The Vancouver Sun ~ 88 Points ~ Domaine Gayda Grenache 2012 VDP, Languedoc, South of France, France

“Peppery, liquorice fresh black raspberry nose with spicy, meaty, savoury aromas.  Fresh, round, smooth, juicy palate with black raspberry jam, candied orange, spicy, red liquorice and kirsch flavours.  A touch of sweetness but good fruit and a juicy drinking style.  Lots of potential here with pork, turkey or lamb. Good value!” (2011 vintage, 2012 not yet rated)
