Chateau de Vaudieu

Chateau de Vaudieu has been in the Bréchet family for over 50 years, run by Laurent Bréchet today. The estate is 70 hectares, 60 of which are for black varieties. The vineyards are located in the heart of the appellation, just to the northeast of the village and neighbouring Pignan and Chateau Rayas.

Two reds are produced: The Grand Vin, which is made from the oldest parcels, and Closerie de Vaudieu, which is effectively a second wine. There is also an excellent white which is made mainly from Grenache Blanc.

These wines offer remarkable value for money: they ooze with style and authenticity, and whilst they are not blockbusters, they are delicious, refined, and worthy of a space in any collector's cellar.
