Domaine d'Escausses is the centuries-old winery of the Balaran family from Sainte-Croix in Gaillac, right across from the historic cathedral of Albi. The domaine covers 34 hectares of vineyards, about two-thirds of which is planted with dark-skinned grapes: well-known international varieties, but also grapes found only here, such as Duras and Braucol. For its white wines too, Domaine d'Escausses mainly uses indigenous varieties such as Muscadelle, Loin de l'oeil and Mauzac.

Jean-Marc Balaran and his wife Roselyne produce the whole range of Gaillac wines: from red primeurs to robust red wines that can be cellared for years. Domaine d'Escausses is one of the best houses of the Gaillac, regularly winning awards at regional and international wine competitions - especially the dry whites La Vigne de l'Oubli and L'Ombre Fraîche, and the reds La Croix Petite and Cuvée des Drilles.
