Domaine Chiroulet
Domaine Chiroulet –
six generations of Gascons at 180 meters altitude
Domaine Chiroulet lies in the heart of Gascony , at an altitude of approximately 180 meters – the highest vineyard site in the region. The name says it all: "Chiroula" means wind in the local dialect, and it blows here constantly. The southern exposure and continuous air movement keep the grapes healthy and give the wines a natural freshness rarely found in the lower-lying areas of Gascony.
Chiroulet has been family-owned for over 150 years. Philippe Fézas, a sixth-generation winemaker, has transformed the estate into one of the most renowned in the region – in 2015, the prestigious French wine guide Bettane+Desseauve named it the best winery in Gascony. Fézas cultivates 65 hectares, working with what defines Gascony: local grape varieties, windswept vineyards, and a style that prioritizes origin over convention.
Chiroulet's wines are no compromises. They taste of place, altitude, wind – and of the craftsmanship of a family that has learned to read this terroir over generations.
