Domaine Pierre Jean Villa

Pierre Jean Villa

The Villa family has always worked in viticulture both in Spain and France. However, Pierre-Jean never inherited vines, but he harvested in different areas, visited cellars, tasted wines and mapped out vineyard routes with other winemakers. In 1992, his wine life in Burgundy began at the prestigious Clos de Tart and Domaine de la Vougerai... Pierre-Jean Villa learns the entire process here, from cellar to marketing. In 2003 Pierre-Jean Villa returned to his native region and joined Les Vins de Vienne, the partnership of François Villard, Yves Cuilleron and Pierre Gaillard. Here he was responsible for the entire organization, from administration to the vinification of the wines, until 2009. In 2009, Pierre-Jean Villa then started his own domain in the heart of the northern Rhone and began his new life as an independent winemaker. In 2020, the year before organic certification, the domain has 17 hectares of vineyards in the Northern Rhone spread over the right and left banks of the Rhone in prestigious appellations of origin such as: Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage.

Pierre Jean Villa

A great wine comes from respect for land, climate, terroir and grape, is Pierre-Jean Villa's belief. In the vineyard, the only logic is to protect the diversity of the terroir and to make wines that properly reflect it. In the cellar, Pierre-Jean Villa believes in a vinification that involves as little intervention as possible: use of natural yeasts, crossing and bottling take into account the position of the moon. In the end, the wine must express this fair and delicate balance between the typicity of the terroir and the ethics of the winegrower.

French Wines

Many famous and very special wines are made in France. It is perhaps the wine country with the greatest wines and grapes. From the north east to the border with Spain, wines are made from many different grape varieties. Wine is part of the country's culture and a meal without wine is unthinkable here. French wine regions such as Burgundy, Bordeaux, Rhône, Loire, Alsace, Jura and Languedoc are just a few of the unique wine regions that can be found in the country.

French red wine

The main grapes for red wine in France are, without wanting to discredit any other grape variety: pinot noir, cabernet sauvignon, merlot and syrah. Pinot noir is the grape variety of Burgundy and great French wines such as Volnay, Pommard, Corton and Clos de Vougeot are made from this grape variety. Cabernet sauvignon and merlot are mainly planted in Bordeaux, the region of Saint-Emilion and Margaux. Finally, Syrah is the basis for the great wines from the northern Rhône, such as the famous wines Côte-Rôtie and Hermitage.

French White Wine

White wines are of course made throughout the country, but the most important areas for white wine are Loire, Burgundy and Alsace. Three wine regions located further north in France. Here, French wine is made from well-known grape varieties such as chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, pinot gris and riesling, but also from lesser-known varieties such as aligoté, chasselas, gewurztraminer and melon de bourgogne. Chardonnay is the basis for the white wines from Burgundy and in the Loire there are fine examples of the sauvignon grape from Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, for example.

French sparkling wines

In addition to the still wines, France is of course known for the sparkling wines that are made in Champagne, of course, but also in the Loire, Jura, Alsace and Burgundy. In Champagne, chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier form the basis of sparkling wines made with the classic second fermentation in the bottle. We offer you several sparkling wines from France, most of which are certified organic and are perfect as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to various dishes.
