AboutDomaine de Gaubourg
Félix Célard grew up at a former watermill in Anjou, with vineyards just across from the family home. He began his working life as a cook, then trained with Loire growers before returning to the estate. Domaine de Gaubourg farms six hectares on schist slopes near the Loire and the Aubance.
Grolleau Noir, Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc are the heart of the range. The vineyards are farmed organically and harvested by hand; the cellar uses tanks and neutral oak.

Pale strawberry and bricky cherry in colour, this light red has floral aromas, fresh raspberry, red cherry, cherry pulp and leafy notes. The fruit lingers, while a finishing structure gives a mouthwatering element. Grolleau Noir and Cabernet Franc come from vines aged fifty to sixty years. The grapes are hand harvested, with fifty percent retained as whole clusters. Production includes fifteen days of maceration and six months of ageing in stainless steel. Alcohol is eleven and a half percent.
