A fruity and delicious Crozes Hermitage from Pierre-Jean Villa

The estate

Passionate about wine, Pierre-Jean Villa began his career by marketing Burgundy wines and then, from 1992, managed the production and marketing of major Burgundy estates such as Mommessin and Clos de Tart. In 2003, he joined the Vins de Vienne estate in the Rhône Valley, a venture launched in 1996 by Yves Cuilleron, Pierre Gaillard and François Villard. In 2009, Pierre-Jean Villa created his own estate in the heart of his native town, Chavanay, on the steep terraces of Saint-Joseph and Condrieu, with the ambition of producing great wines expressing the richness of these terroirs with authenticity and accuracy, along with winemaker ethics. The wines produced by Pierre-Jean Villa, one of the most gifted winemakers of his generation according to Bettane & Desseauve, are recognised for their freshness, their delicacy, their finesse and their extreme precision.

The vineyard

The vineyard covers a total area of 17 hectares on either side of the Rhône Valley, in the emblematic appellations of Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage and the hillsides of Seyssuel. The vines are 30 years old on average.

The wine

This wine takes its name from the vine tendrils which look like « accroche-cœurs » (kiss curls). This Syrah is an intense and fruity wine from the the Crozes-Hermitage appellation.

Winemaking and ageing

The grapes were destemmed and the maceration lasted 15 days. The wine was aged for 12 months in 500 litre barrels and demi-muids. Racking and blending were done 6 weeks before bottling.

Blend

100% Syrah.
