THE ESTATE
The beginning of Domaine de La Ganse
I spent my childhood hearing “la ganse” coming from my parents and grandparents working in the vineyard, in the old provençal dialect “la ganse” is the area at the end of the row where you can turn the plow. When I decided to start my estate, I wanted to pay homage to my ancestors and the local traditions. Thus, Domaine de La Ganse came into being.
I created Domaine de La Ganse in 2008, with 3.5 hectares left by my parents. Over the last ten years the estate has grown to just over 9 hectares on the Garrigues de Sarrians plateau in the AOC Vacqueyras. The warming Mediterranean sun and cooling Mistral wind help make this appellation so unique. Respecting my natural surroundings has always been very important to me, and La Ganse has been certified Organic since 2014.
The last ten years have been spent restructuring all my plots. Repairing the training system, replacing missing vines, and carefully working the soil to favor the development of the precious microflora and fauna. All this work in the vineyard means that today the vines naturally produce grapes capable of producing beautiful wines.
In organic viticulture, it is essential to follow the local climate carefully and the vines annual life cycle closely, this means spending more time in the vineyard then my neighbors, manually removing leaves and extra buds for example. All this extra work in the field during the growing season helps the vines produce perfectly balanced grapes.
In the cellar I believe the traditional methods are best: destemming followed by a cold maceration and then a temperature-controlled fermentation with pump overs and délestage. The whole cuvaison last 30 days.
The wines are then aged for eight months in concrete tanks for the « La Ganse » cuvée and 12 months in oak for “L’Affirmé(e)”.
At La Ganse, unlike other estates, I don’t like to blend different plots into several wines. The two cuvées are treated separately, from the vineyards through to the fermentation (average yields are low, 36HL/HA, which means I can ferment plots separately).
La Ganse for me is three things: fresh fruit, power, and not forgetting that all-important feminine touch that makes a great Vacqueyras.
I hope you will enjoy drinking the wines as much as I enjoyed making them.
2 red wines each made with Grenache and Syrah make up the current La Ganse selection.
Jancis Robinson : 16.5
Tasted blind. Dark crimson. Heady, spicy nose. Precise and dense with a beginning, middle and end. More savour than most – less sweet – but not excessively drying on the end. Just slightly falls away on the finish. 14.5% Drink 2018-2023
Dark red with a hint of violet. Lots of undergrowth and truffle on the nose, with some not overpowering and well-integrated oak and vanilla. The oak is found on the palate but more roasted, which helps give the wine structure and power. To decant an hour before drinking, lovely with game or spicy food.
