Gault&Millau's review

2025 91/100

A nose with aromas of the Syrah grape variety, pepper, violets, blackberry tart and wood fire. The palate is still full of substance and tannins, but everything is already in place. The woody notes will need a little more time to integrate, but you can feel the power of this wine. Serve it with a stewed dish, or cellar it for many years to come.

Domaine François Villard

A former chef, François Villard set up his own estate in 1989, planting his first vines in the Poncins area of the Condrieu PDO. Throughout his winegrowing career, he has continued to expand and refine his winemaking techniques. He now farms 42 hectares and produces 23 cuvées covering almost all the appellations of the northern Rhône valley. In 2022, he obtained Ecocer organic certification, then decided to expand his winery in 2024. With Pierre Gaillard and Yves Cuilleron, he created Vins de Vienne.
