Gayda Winery Presents Three Winds Wines
Winery
Domaine Gayda is more than just a vineyard and world class winery. Domaine Gayda is a concept of winemaking, and
vineyard management based on an in-depth understanding of our vines, our natural environment and the winemaking process.
Domaine Gayda is situated south East of Carcassonne in the Languedoc region of South West France. Known traditionally
for its large area of vineyards producing volume table wines, things have changed rapidly over the last 5 to 10 years. The revolution of change is in full swing
and Domaine Gayda is in the centre of the revolution. The Languedoc is blessed with so many exciting 'terroirs' diverse in soil types, aspect and climate. This
diversity is our opportunity to not only grow grapes of outstanding quality on our own vineyards, but to work with partner growers throughout this beautiful,
diverse region of France.
Winemaker
Trained at the School of Viticulture and Oenology in Cognac, France, Vincent's experience includes outstanding work in the Loire Valley, the Rhône Valley, the
Languedoc, and the Stellenbosch region of western South Africa.
Vincent's careful attention to detail and his passion to create something truly special is driving the wine making at Gayda. Vincent has proved to us all that
appreciation of outstanding wine is more objective, and less subjective than people think. Good quality wine can only be made with outstanding grapes from
suitable terroirs followed by meticulously controlled wine making, storage and maturation in oak. A rigorous hygiene program in the winery and an exceptional
work ethic and discipline is essential to ensure every detail is attended to correctly, even if it is 3.00am in the morning!
Hand picking and berry by berry sorting of the grapes, Vincent's passionate approach to an integrated quality control system from field to winery has already
earned him the respect of fellow wine makers throughout the world.
