Villa Dria: The Harmony of Authenticity and Innovation in the Heart of Gascony

In the Gers region of Gascony, the Villa Dria vineyard spans 70 hectares, nestled in a pristine natural environment. Surrounded by Natura 2000-protected meadows, woodlands, and organic cereal fields, our estate embodies a perfect balance between terroir and biodiversity.

At Villa Dria, we are dedicated to crafting wines that reflect the authenticity and richness of our Gascon terroir. Every cuvée is the result of passionate work and a savoir-faire passed down with simplicity, always driven by the desire to share genuine and warm moments around our wines.

A Commitment to Sustainable Agriculture

Jean-Pierre Drieux, owner and winemaker, cultivates the vineyard with deep respect for nature and local traditions. Convinced of the importance of sustainable agriculture, he employs innovative practices to enhance the unique features of the terroir:

• Use of techniques inspired by biodynamics and geobiology to preserve and energize the soil.
• An eco-designed winery fully powered by solar energy.

Winemaking Designed for Excellence

In the winery, every detail is carefully considered to ensure high-quality wines that strike a perfect balance between precision and authenticity:

• Low-sulfite winemaking through bioprotection, producing more natural wines.
• Advanced techniques: nitrogen protection to reduce oxidation, cold stabilization to intensify aromas, lees aging to enrich texture, and filtration just before bottling to preserve freshness.
• Dry and precise wines, free from added sugar or residual sugars, combining elegance and a distinctive structure.

Our wines stand out for:

• A vibrant tension and remarkable freshness.
• Fruity aromas and subtle notes, enhanced by bright acidity and refined bitterness.

A Diversity of Grape Varieties

For 15 years, Villa Dria has been committed to showcasing the diversity of its terroir through a complete range of wines featuring endemic grape varieties such as Colombard, Gros Manseng, and Petit Manseng, as well as Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Our red wines are crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Syrah.
