Gauby Les Calcinaires Rouge Igp Côtes Catalanes, 2023

Gauby’s Les Calcinaires Rouge is a vibrant, terroir-driven red from the Roussillon that showcases the estate’s talent for making wines with purity, freshness, and Mediterranean character. Sourced from the Côtes Catalanes, it reflects the rocky, sun-drenched landscape of southern France while remaining notably refined and approachable in style.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a bright, youthful ruby color with good clarity. The nose is typically expressive and inviting, with aromas of ripe red berries, dark cherries, garrigue herbs, and a subtle earthy, mineral edge. On the palate, the wine is usually medium-bodied and lively, balancing juicy fruit with fresh acidity, supple tannins, and a savory, lightly spiced finish. Its style suggests it can be enjoyed young for its energy and freshness, though it should also hold well for a few years as the flavors gain depth and complexity.

Production
Produced in the Côtes Catalanes of Roussillon, a region known for its hot, dry Mediterranean climate and varied soils, Gauby’s wines often reflect a strong sense of place. While specific vinification details for this vintage are not provided, the estate is widely associated with careful, minimal-intervention winemaking that emphasizes balance, freshness, and the character of the vineyard rather than oak influence.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile red for grilled meats, roast chicken, lamb, Mediterranean vegetables, charcuterie, and dishes with herbs de Provence. Serve slightly cool, around 15–17°C, and decanting is optional but can help open the wine if enjoyed young.

Producer
Domaine Gauby is one of the most respected producers in Roussillon, admired for helping elevate the region’s reputation for high-quality, expressive wines. The estate has become known for wines that combine concentration with elegance, and for a strong commitment to showcasing the unique terroir of the area through precise, thoughtful viticulture and winemaking.
