At the top of First Classified Great wines. The winegrowing is located on the terraces of left bank of the Tarn, with two steps of charming quoted Renaissance de Gaillac. After an important modernization program and to have obtained Qualenvi certification of Vignerons Indépendants in 2002, the winegrowing required in 2007 its reconversion in bio. Beautiful Gaillac Les Gentilles Pierres red 2006 (Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet-Sauvignon and Braucol), of quite steady color, with silky and firm tannins at the same time, the subtle nose prevailed by the quite ripe black small fruits (blackcurrant, black cherry), developing a harmonious mouth.
