The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Launched by Gérard Gauby, the star winemaker of Roussillon, Domaine du Soula produces exceptional wines, certified biodynamic. Mark Walford, former British importer of Gauby's wines, has taken over the magnificent Fenouillèdes region to cultivate old vines on these high-altitude terroirs.

The results exceed expectations, earning a star in the RVF Guide; these are distinctive wines marked by freshness and energy, two attributes that have always been the hallmark of the estate. Exceptional quality in both red and white wines, always under the watchful eye of Gérard Gauby; the second RVF star is within reach!
Wine The 2021 Red IGP Côtes Catalanes retains a lot of freshness and a charming mouthfeel. It’s a supple, immediately approachable, and delightful wine, surrounded by fine tannins and beautiful fruit flavors. A very pleasing wine that is already open and full of charm.
