Domaine de Galuval is ideally positioned between Cairanne and Rasteau in the Southern Rhône. It consists of 120 in various parcels covering some of the best terroir with some of the oldest vines in the region. Low intervention and perfect growing conditions combined with careful parcel selection and judicious ageing result in thoroughly modern wines that remain true to the individual character of each vintage. Winemaker Emmanuel Couzi’s style is guided by the richness of the fruit and the diversity of each terroir. The emblem of the Domaine de Galuval, the Rooster spins around as the weathervane is battered by the wind. The Mistral and the benefit it brings are what help their vineyards to prosper, ventilating the vines, keeping the grapes healthy and chasing away the clouds to allow them to reach perfect maturity.

The nose on the La Vallee is typical of Clairette and Viognier, develops aromas of ripe fruit, apricot and sage lifted by citrus notes. The sensation of tension and minerality is immediate in the mouth with layered honeyed pear, tangerine, and white-floral tones. The palate is structured with notes of hazelnut and elegant aromas of honey and elderflower on the finish.
