      A sublime estate to discover in the Tarn

      The story begins in 1930 when Jacques' grandparents settled in Gaillac, later joined by their son and his wife Maryse, and then by the third generation with Patrice and Nathalie. Overlooking the Tarn Valley, Domaine Vayssette has modernized over the years while preserving winemaking traditions and family expertise to maintain the authenticity of Gaillac wines. From 7 hectares, the vineyards have expanded to 26 hectares, offering a sublime landscape that evolves with the vine's cycle. Braucol, Duras, Prunelart, Loin de l'Oeil, Mauzac, Muscadelle, and Ondec, the typical Gaillac grape varieties, are interspersed with complementary varieties such as Syrah, Gamay, and Sauvignon Blanc.
