Pierre gaillard

In 1981, Pierre Gaillard cleared some land and planted his first vineyards in Clos de Cuminaille situated in the Saint Joseph designation area. Since then, he has never stopped improving vineyards on the steep hillsides which plunge down towards the Rhône river. Today the domain covers 30 hectares, mainly in the classified vineyards of the northern Rhône valley planted to Syrah, Viognier, and Roussanne.
