Domaine Champ-Long

Producer description of "Domaine Champ-Long"

The winery is located in the municipality of Entrechaux in the département of Vaucluse in the French wine-growing region of Rhône. The traditional family has been growing grapes since 1820. Maurice Gely started his own wine production in 1954, until then the grapes were delivered to a cooperative. Today, the business is run by his grandson Jean-Christophe Gely. The vineyards cover 30 hectares at the foot of Mont Ventoux. The white wine varieties Clairette, Grenache Blanc (Garnacha Blanca), Roussanne and Viognier, as well as the red wine varieties Grenache Noir (Garnacha Tinta) and Syrah are cultivated. A maximum yield limit of 20 hl/ha applies to the top red wines. The product range of the house includes various red wines, rosé wines and white wines AOC Côtes du Rhône and Ventoux, as well as IGP wines (country wines). The premium wines of the house are the white wine Ventoux "Les Gressannes" (50% each Roussanne and Grenache Blanc, 8 months in half new and half used barrique barrels) and the red wine Ventoux ""Les Essareaux" (90% Syrah and 10% Grenache Noir, 12 months in used barrique barrels).
