24 Ha organic wine estate in a dominant position, AOP Cotes du Rhone Village
This 24-hectare estate is located on the outskirts of Avignon in the Côtes du Rhône Villages Gadagne appellation.
All the residential and farm buildings are set in the heart of the vineyards in a dominant position, with beautiful, unobstructed views over the city of Avignon.
Property and building details:
The modern main house (approx. 200 m2) dates from the 1970’s but has been completely renovated and a swimming pool added. It faces due south. It features one main living room complemented by a kitchen and 5 bedrooms on the ground floor. The first floor contains a private flat.
Vineyard and farm:
Two sheds adjoining the house are ideal for storing cultivation equipment in excellent conditions. The farm buildings also include a small office with a wine shop/tasting room.
The wines are currently vinified by a contractor, and are of superior quality.
The cultivation equipment is in excellent condition and regularly renewed. It is perfectly suited to organic farming.
Perched on a plateau of rolled pebbles, comparable to the terroir of Chateauneuf du Pape, this small appellation of just 250 hectares is the closest vineyard in the southern Rhone valley to the papal city of Avignon.
The estate cultivates 24 hectares of vines, of which 21.4 hectares are owned and 2.8 hectares leased. The vineyard is classed AOP Cotes du Rhone Villages (14.7ha), Cotes du Rhone (9.3ha) and IGP (0.2ha).
The vineyard has been certified organic for many years. It is very well maintained and the grape varieties are in line with the appellation’s specifications. The average yield is around 40-45 hl/ha.
