Founded in 1818, Maison Calvet carries an impressive two centuries of winemaking heritage, guided by the vision of Jean Marie Calvet, born in the Rhône Valley. The family's vinicultural journey traverses the diverse landscapes of France.
Gigondas, a renowned "cru" of the Côtes du Rhône, boasts a viticultural history spanning two thousand years. In the southern Rhône Valley, Gigondas holds appellation status for red, rosé, and, more recently, white wines. While celebrated for its reds, the appellation competes admirably with its well-known counterpart to the southwest, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, often drawing comparisons between the two.
With its pleasing cherry red hue, this Gigondas wine entices with aromas of fresh red fruits, embodying a supple structure and smooth tannins. Ideal pairings include duck, rack of lamb, and white meat in a flavorful sauce. Discover the allure of Gigondas, a testament to Maison Calvet's commitment to excellence.
