Location of Domaine Pierre Gaillard

Domaine Pierre Gaillard is located in Malleval. The vineyard is located on slopes that slope down to the Rhône. Its vineyards cover 25 hectares, from Côte-Rôtie to Cornas. The soils of the Côte-Rôtie appellation are composed of decomposing schist.

For the Saint-Joseph, Condrieu and Côtes-du-Rhône appellations, the soils are made of weathered granite. The climate is very warm, with very few frosts.
