TastingDeep, dense garnet-red in colour. The nose is generous and seductive, displaying ripe red fruit aromas with a subtle hint of liquorice.

Detailed information
Vintage
2025 offers a vintage with a distinctive personality, in a year of intense climatic contrasts. Despite lower yields, the concentration and aromatic finesse achieved are remarkable. The periods of heat brought beautiful ripeness, while the late summer rains preserved freshness. The result: balanced, expressive and promising wines. A vintage that will appeal to both enthusiasts and professionals alike with its generosity and brilliance.
Grape varieties
Terroir
Located south of the massif that separates the Aygues and Ouvèze valleys, the appellation extends only to the commune of Cairanne in the northwestern part of the Vaucluse. The grape varieties flourish on shallow soils located not far from the vast terrace of the “Plan de Dieu” and benefiting from a warm and dry climate.
Winemaking
The grape varieties are vinified separately, allowing each to fully express its distinctive character. Vatting lasts from 3 to 4 weeks depending on the grape variety. After racking and malolactic fermentation, the grape varieties are blended. The wine is then kept for 10 months in vats before bottling.
Service
Enjoy now or over the next five years. Decant one hour before serving and serve at 13–15°C.
Gabriel Meffre
Delicious and savoury from day one: this is the commitment of our Gabriel Meffre "signature" wines. For each appellation, and in keeping with the characteristics of the vintage, our know-how is recognisable through our experienced blending of "terroirs" and grape varieties and through our careful maturing, favouring purity of fruit and silkyness of texture. Already enjoyable in their first year after bottling, the Crus also have good aging potential.
