Tasting“Limpid ruby. Sexy, highly fragrant aromas of spice-accented red berries, incense and potpourri; a smoky mineral element builds in the glass. Sweet, palate-staining black raspberry, floral pastille and spicecake flavors show impressive depth as well as energy. Round and seamless in texture, delivering supple framing tannins and outstanding power and floral-driven persistence.” Vinous Media – Josh Raynolds. 30th Nov 2018.

Domaine de Longue Toque
Nestled in the foothills of the Dentelles de Montmirail since 1918, the Domaine de Longue Toque is one of the prestigious estates of Maison Gabriel Meffre since 1999. It takes its name from the long groves – ‘touque’ in Provençal – which delimited the parcelles by protecting them from the wind. The vineyards are located on a mosaic of terroirs that draw their original character from different geological layers, altitudes and exposures. The vineyard produces 6 appellations over 43 hectares: Gigondas, Vacqueyras, Cairanne, Rasteau, Côtes du Rhône Villages Plan de Dieu and Côtes du Rhône red and white. After 20 years in Terra Vitis (sustainable viticulture), 2020 marks the first year of certification for organic farming at the Domaine. A continuity in our desire to work the land and the wine with respect for nature and people. 2023 is to be the first harvest of the white Gigondas.
