| THE WINERY | |
|
Situated on the highest slopes in Gascony, at around 180 meters altitude, Domaine Chiroulet faces due south towards the Pyrenees. Father and son lovingly cultivate 45 hectares of vines aged between 10 and 40 years old.
At the top of the Côtes de Gascogne, the Fezas’ wines are made of Merlot (predominant grape variety), Cabernet Sauvignon and Tanat for the reds as well as Gros Manseng, Sauvignon and Ugni Blanc for the whites. Their wide and varied vineyard spread over wonderful terroirs with their chalky-clay outcrops containing loose, white stones.
Over the last 150 years, six generations, loyal to the Ténarèze terroir, produce red wine, dry and sweet white wine as well as Floc de Gascogne and Armagnac.
Domaine Chiroulet is one of the rare estates in France to produce vintage wines which take you through from the aperitif to the after-dinner liqueur.
True expression of the terroir, their wines of character are often rich with a velvety texture.
