Les Vins de Vienne

The Les Vins de Vienne estate was born out of a deep friendship between three winemakers from the northern Rhône. In 1996, Yves Cuilleron, François Villard, and Pierre Gaillard founded the Les Vins de Vienne estate with the aim of revitalizing the superb Seyssuel terroirs located across from Condrieu and Côte-Rôtie.  Of the 16 hectares of vineyards, 11 were planted between 1996 and 2001. Over the years, the Les Vins de Vienne range has expanded through the purchase of grapes to create vintages from northern appellations such as St-Péray, Crozes-Hermitage, St-Joseph, Côtes-du-Rhône, and Côte-Rôtie.
