January 2019 (Vintage 2016)Some tropical fruit, in the pawpaw and green-mango zone, with a subtly mealy edge. A sturdy palate with plenty of weight and texture. Long flavors of melon and pears. Drink now.

About this winery
A trained chef, Francois Villard developed a passion for wine at the age of 20. Unsure how to enter the wine world, he completed a year of professional certification in sommellerie at Tain l’Hermitage. The connections he made there were pivotal, inspiring him to become a winemaker.
