Chateau Gilbert & Gaillard was born from the efforts of two wine enthusiasts and wine critics, Francois Gilbert and Philippe Gaillard. In 1991, they started publishing wine magazine Gilbert & Gaillard to share their wine critics and knowledge with wine lovers. The magazine is now available on 5 continents. Their years of experiences of travelling around the world and the professional knowledge of wine, as well as their passion for wine help them establish Chateau Gilbert & Gaillard in Saint-Chinian and Languedoc. Gilbert, as the son of the winemakers family , and Gaillard, as a doctor in Geography who specializes in the study of wine terroirs, accentuate the importance of nature. The winemaking philosophy of the Chateau is to transcribe the terroir of Chinian to the consumer, from the vine to the glass, keeping all these features namely, the freshness, the finesse and elegance.
