A tenor of the Rhône and awarded 2 stars by RVF, Pierre-Jean Villa continues to dazzle us! Reaching new heights with each vintage, he touches us deeply, unveiling energetic and richly flavored wines that amaze enthusiasts.
His 17 hectares, spread across the major crus on both banks of the Rhône, enable him to craft a broad array of appellations, including the fantastic Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu. With keen sensitivity and attention to detail, he produces wines of great vitality, marked by intense aromas, always with extreme delicacy, and perfectly expressing their schist or granite terroirs.
