Earl château Grande Cassage

About the Winery

An ancient domain located near the Saint-Gilles abbey and acquired in 1887 by Hippolyte Dardé, a wine merchant in Paris. His distant heirs Benoît, installed in 1991, and his son Paul, who arrived in 2015, are now at the helm and produce quality Costières-de-Nîmes in all three colors. The vineyard has 80 hectares. The estate produces wines from the Costières-de-Nîmes appellation, benefiting from the unique terroir of rounded quartzite pebbles ('galets') deposited by the Rhône and Durance rivers, which store heat during the day and release it at night.
