Côtes de Duras

Domaine Gourdon has been in existence as a vineyard for over thirty years. Jon Coulthard bought the domaine in 2002 and produced his first vintage in 2003. A blisteringly hot summer and rain at the right time helped to produce a wine that got better and better the older it got. Sadly, there is now none left!
Jon Coulthard originally trained as a civil engineer; after spending many years globetrotting working on large building projects, he decided to follow his passion and enrolled at Plumpton College in Sussex on a wine making course. While a student he worked at a vineyard in the Côtes de Duras, and
decided to find a vineyard of his own in the area.
In 2010, Jonathan Walkden joined Jon in partnership at the vineyard, having also trained at Plumpton college.
Domaine Gourdon wines have, in recent years, been entered in The International Wine Challenge, and have won both silver and bronze.
