A New World spirit has been breathed into this range of single varietal wines that remain firmly rooted in their Languedoc homeland. Syrah and Sauvignon, the improbable confrontation of grape varieties and wine profiles, symbolise Domaine Gayda’s origins and the fusion of two worlds, Old and New.
The deep, intense red colour announces a straightforward, honest wine. The nose expresses crushed raspberry, blackberry and morello cherry, with a mineral touch reminiscent of flint. On the palate, the attack is lively, driven by pronounced acidity that brings plenty of freshness. The structure remains accessible, with present tannins that are still slightly angular. The spicy finish retains excellent drinkability. A direct, fresh wine, best enjoyed in its youth.
Short maceration at around 20°C to preserve fruit and freshness - 1/3 carbonic maceration
