Location
Northern Rhône - Côte-Rôtie
One of the best winemakers and viticulturalists of his generation, the collegiate and enthusiastic Pierre-Jean Villa returned from making wine in Burgundy to manage négociant house Les Vins de Vienne soon after its inception. He now makes wines across several Northern Rhône appellations under his own name, and is best known for his Côte-Rôties, notable for their textural finesse. His Condrieu is also particularly impressive. His children Pauline and Hugo are now making wine under their own label.
