Genesis Wines

This domaine, a stones throw away from the Spanish border, is run by the ever young Pierre Gaillard of Northern Rhône fame and has seen a rapid ascent to the very top of the appellation. Seduced by a magnificent set of abandoned vineyards in Collioure, reminiscent of his steep vineyards in Côte Rôtie, Pierre changed the old fashioned winemaking techniques used in the region and applied an extensive restorative regime in the vineyards. The wines including a complex white, a rich and serious red, and rare sweeties, are now rivalling the best in the Roussillon.
