There are three. Three Rhone Valley bosses who wanted to highlight the wines of Seyssuel, one of the most beautiful terroirs of the valley. Yves Cuilleron, Pierre Gaillard and François Villard joined forces at the end of the 90's, in parallel with their own estates, to give new life to the vineyards of Seyssuel. There, they are free to express all their virtuosity and mastery of winemaking. On this vineyard of Allobroge, forgotten since Antiquity, they forge wines of beautiful density and art, that are being praised by every wine lover lucky enough to taste them.
