Préface is a call to discover the wines of Pierre-Jean Villa. De-stemmed and with a long maceration, this Saint Joseph shows a beautiful precision of fruit with a subtle peppery and mineral note. The palate is greedy with spicy accents and a long finish thanks to a supple, fresh texture. A fine introduction!

Bettane & Desseauve

Wine rated 93/100 (Vintage 2020)

Domaine rated (guide 2023) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)

About the domain :

What a meteoric rise for this new winegrower, who has only been in business since 2009. The constant care he devotes to his different plots and the precise work in the cellar enable him to produce wines in Saint Joseph, Condrieu and Côte-Rôtie that are on the podium of their respective appellations. In 2020, the côte-rôtie fongeant will approach perfection. The challenge for enthusiasts will be to get their hands on a few bottles.

Wine rated (guide 2023) 92/100 (Vintage 2020)

Domaine rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (These great estates, often endowed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the domain :

Created in 2008, this estate has gone from strength to strength. It has gradually expanded without losing its philosophy: to produce wines with identity. In the reds, the proportion of whole grapes varies according to the cuvée. High-quality ageing enhances and refines the wines, without over-pommading them. White wines retain their finesse. The quality and homogeneity of the entire production are remarkable.
