WE LOVE IT BECAUSE:

The Gamine, translated to English "Kid" is affectionately named for the young vines that will one day produces the St Joseph and Cote Rotie appellation wines. Expect blackberry, earthy notes and black pepper to jump from the glass and greet your nose.

In the footsteps of his ancestors, Pierre Jean Villa has been working the vineyards all of his life. He learned to make wine at Clos de Tart in Burgundy, it was here he learned to refine the elegance of the grape. He perfected his craft in the Rhone Valley working at Vins de Vienne. In 2009 he embarked on his own journey as independent wine grower. His son Hugo and daughter Pauline work the vineyards along side him and bottle their own wines under the Hugo and Pauline Villa brand.

The Rhone Valley is blessed with an ideal combination of contrasting climate influences. The round stones that were created by glaciers moving and rolling rivers reflect heat upon the vines to encourage ripening. The stones retain the heat into the night which is needed when the mistral wind starts gusting down the Rhone Valley starting near Dijon. The mistral wind could blow the ears off a donkey. The vines need to be staked down to prevent them from blowing over but the benefit is that it cools the vines and retains acidity, essential for aging.
