De Deurre

Our Domaine (100 acres) is located on the sunny hills of Saint Maurice and Vinsobres villages. It is the result of four generations of winegrowers. In 1987, Jean-Claude Valayer and his two sons Hubert (winemaker) and Denis modernised the winery of Château de Deurre (XVI century). 50 hectares in A.O.C. Côtes-du-Rhône villages. Our variety of vines are traditionnal : grenache, syrah, mourvèdre and cinsault for the red wine. White wines are composed of viognier, marssanne, roussanne and clairette. Our wine making and aging processes are done by traditionnal methods. We hand select all of our grapes on a table before a long fermentation in stainless steel tanks with temperature control. The grapes go by gravity on a conveyer belt in the press and the wine in a tank under by gravity too. All aging and bottling are done in our temperature control cellars.
