The Saint-Peray Version from domaine François Villard is made mainly from marsanne. This Rhone Valley wine has that extra touch of vivacity that makes this cuvée so charming, even in warm years. Domaine François Villard belongs to the elite of Rhône Valley wines. A former chef, François Villard, who has decided to manage his vineyard using certified organic farming methods since 2019, produces wines from the northern Rhône Valley that are more focused on finesse. Here, the emphasis is not on opulence, but on good ripeness without heaviness, creating wines with length and uprightness, 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"
