Les Vignobles Gayrel La Brêche Braucol Syrah 2024
£10.25
The wine
A characterful red with generous notes of blackcurrant fruit, with hints of liquorice, sweet spice and vanilla. Smooth and supple, with a fresh finish. Braucol gives the structure and local character, Syrah the flesh. Alain Gayrel took over nine hectares in 1976 and set out to make the estate a reference for the South West; his son Vincent continues it.
The producer
Les Vignobles Alain Gayrel
View all Les Vignobles Alain Gayrel winesAlain Gayrel took over his family's nine hectares in 1976 and set about making it a reference point for Gaillac. He selected the best plots on old winegrowing soils and worked them by hand so that the terroir could speak.
His son Vincent continues the work. The family has built long-standing partnerships with growers farming sustainably under HVE Level 3 certification, and the wines are modern and fruit-driven while staying loyal to the signature varieties of the South West.
