The domain's short story
Jeanne is the daughter of a winemaker, and not just any winemaker: Pierre Gaillard, very famous in the Rhone Valley and in Languedoc-Roussillon! It is from her parents that Jeanne got her passion for wine and the desire to make it her profession. In 2008, she embarked on the adventure of winemaking and became independent from her parents by buying a vineyard. The Domaine Jeanne Gaillard is located in Pont de l'Isère, in the commune of Crozes-Hermitage, as well as in the plain of the Drôme, and on the granite plateaus. This estate used to belong to a nurseryman, which allowed him to work with many grape varieties. But it is also the product of her viticultural experiences in France and abroad: for example, she brought her personal touch by buying back vines in appellation and replanting Saint-Joseph and Condrieu (in 2011). Before getting to this point, Jeanne did a BTS in marketing followed by a BTS in viticulture and oenology in the city of Beaune. She then did an internship in California to get new ideas. Finally, she returned to her native land to launch herself into the wine world. A successful bet, she handles her grape varieties with brio and shows everyone that she is on her own by dedicating one of her vintages to her parents: "La Relève"!
