Château Grand Escalion

Located in Générac, south of the Roman city of Nîmes, Château Grand Escalion is an estate dating back to 1884. Since 2002, it has been managed by Maison Gabriel Meffre. The vineyard's 44 hectares are spread over a single area surrounding the estate and stretch across gentle slopes. The Château owes its name to the word “Escalion”, meaning “ascent” in Provençal. The Estate produces red, rosé and white Costières de Nîmes. The grape varieties and our terroir enable the vineyard manager, Nicolas Speranza, to capitalise on the great potential of the appellation by creating single-vineyard cuvées.
