For six generations, the Hirissou family has cultivated vines in the southwest French region, Gaillac. Nicolas Hirissou, the current owner, continues the tradition. The estate dates back to 1827 when Pierre Hirissou planted the first vines. It has been three centuries since the Hirissou family first utilized its vines. Since 2002, Nicolas Hirissou has led the domain with the conviction that he can make great wines in Gaillac. After studying viticulture and oenology and working in California, Nicolas took over the family estate.
Green apple aromas provided from the Mauzac and notes of white pepper thanks to the Petite Sirah, while hints of wild berries accentuate the delicate bubbles and bring lots of freshness to the palate.
