The Saint-Joseph Mairlant du domaine François Villard is supple and greedy, with a lovely backbone. Accessible in its youth, it can be drunk over 5 to 7 years Guide des meilleurs vins de France 2021 : 91/100 Domaine François Villard is among the elite of Rhône Valley wines. A former chef, François Villard, who decided to lead his vineyard in certified organic agriculture since 2019, produces northern Rhône valley wines rather on finesse. Here, the focus is not on opulence, but on ripeness without heaviness; the wines are long and straightforward, while respecting the fruit. Guide RVF des meilleurs vins de France 2020: 2 stars (very great estate). "Just because the troublemaker François Villard doesn't take himself seriously doesn't mean we shouldn't treat his work with the attention it deserves. This self-taught winegrower likes concentrated, late harvests, so as to achieve perfect ripeness rather than over-ripeness. In reds, La Brocarde in côte-rotie and Reflet in saint joseph are often among the greatest successes of the sector. The whites are generous"
