The philosophy of Domaine Desvignes is simple: respect tradition. Hence a culture without weedkillers, "old-fashioned" vinification and rather long maturations in cement vats only. The result is great structured morgons with a subtle and accomplished structure, and a keeping capacity worthy of the great Burgundies (10 years and more).

Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.

The estate's four greatest cuvées (Javernières, Côte du Py, Javernières Aux Pierres and the most famous, Les Impénitents) all come from the Côte du Py climat. These Morgons combine the richness of Gamay with exceptional depth and length. Fleshy wines, made for laying down.

Graeme, originally from New Zealand, and Julie cut their teeth at Domaine Ogier before setting up their own estate in 2015, with the aim of producing pure, precise and, above all, harmonious wines, both white and red. What a journey they have been on over the past decade, as the estate is now one of the most sought-after in the northern Rhône.

Georges Vernay was once known as the “Pope of Condrieu”, resurrecting this appellation from a mere 7 ha in 1960 to almost 200 ha today. Since 1997, his daughter Christine has continued his work step by step, converting the entire vineyard to biodynamic viticulture and creating new cuvées (Les Terrasses de l'Empire, Maison Rouge, Blonde du Seigneur...) for better parcel management.

Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.

Les Terrasses de l'Empire is the archetypal Condrieu “on the fruit”, with inimitable aromas of white peach, apricot kernels and pruned almond. To be enjoyed young, for its pleasant freshness and finesse.

Made from old Syrah vines on the eponymous plot, Maison Rouge is a powerful, structured Côte-Rôtie with great ageing potential.

Regarded as the ‘pope of Crozes-Hermitage’, the Alain Graillot estate has, since the 1980s, played a major role in raising the profile of this appellation, which was previously so undervalued. On alluvial gravel soils (at the confluence of the Isère and Rhône rivers), this estate has been producing straightforward, juicy, elegant and, above all, perfectly easy-drinking wines for 40 years. Awarded two stars in the 2026 edition of the Revue du Vin de France guide.

La Guiraude is not a single-vineyard cuvée but a selection of the finest barrels from a great vintage. In 2023, it was a "coup de cœur" in the Revue du Vin de France, scoring 94/100: "Admirable, with depth, length and a wonderfully juicy expression".

In two generations (Etienne in 1946 then Marcel in 1961), the name Guigal has established itself as the standard bearer in the northern Rhône. Its three mythical Côte-Rôtie cuvées (La Mouline, La Landonne and La Turque) have ensured the Maison's reputation for excellence beyond the borders of France.

Since 1994, Michel Tardieu has been selecting and growing wines from very old vines and from the best terroirs of each appellation.

Saint-Péray Vieilles Vignes: 50% marsanne (with 100 years old vines!) and 50% roussanne. On a background of honeyed and toasted notes, intense aromas of white flowers and quince, the freshness is well present and, in the mouth, the vivacity balances the roundness.

A blend of grenache, roussanne, clairette and bourboulenc, this white Châteauneuf plays the card of freshness and discretion. With aromas of white peach and orange blossom, its natural power will be fully expressed after 5 to 6 years of aging.

Thanks to vines (Syrah) 60 years old, Michel Tardieu produces a 'grand' Crozes-Hermitage. Divided between fruit and minerality, in a round and silky style more Burgundian than Rhodanian, a perfect introduction to the Hermitage's wines.
