Tain Winery
Founded in 1933 by Louis Gambert de Loche, the Cave de Tain is located between Valence and Lyon, at the foot of the Hermitage hill. At the heart of the historic vineyards of the northern Côtes du Rhône, it now has approximately 300 members and produces and markets all the appellations of the northern Rhône, making it the leading producer of wines from the northern Rhône Valley.

On the granitic and alluvial soils of both banks of the Rhône—the result of a complex and highly varied geological evolution (granite and moraines)—the grape varieties give their best: Syrah for red wines, Marsanne for white wines. In addition to the vineyards owned by its winemakers—some for four generations— Cave de Tain itself owns vineyards in the Crozes-Hermitage, Cornas, and Saint-Péray appellations, and most notably, 22 hectares in the prestigious Hermitage appellation. 

Alongside extensive work mapping the terroirs and observing nature, Cave de Tain regularly invests and now possesses technical resources worthy of France’s greatest names. This enables the production of wines of remarkable quality. Cave de Tain innovates with sulfite-free cuvées, Organic cuvées, sweet wines... And is proud to produce a range of wines that allows for the creation of exceptional vintages such as the single-vineyard selections “Les Hauts du Fief” in Crozes-Hermitage or “Fleur de Roc” in Saint-Péray.
