Northern Rhône Wine Country from Ampuis

Begin your Northern Rhône wine experience in the village of Ampuis, the historic gateway to the prestigious Côte-Rôtie appellation. Here, dramatic terraced vineyards rise above the Rhône, revealing one of France’s most striking wine landscapes and offering sweeping views across the valley toward Saint-Joseph.

Côte-Rôtie Vineyards and Terroir

As you explore these steep, sun-drenched slopes, you’ll discover why this vineyard area is so highly regarded by wine lovers around the world. Learn how the hillside exposure, varied soils, and meticulous vineyard work shape the character of Côte-Rôtie wines, known for their depth, elegance, and unmistakable sense of place.

Condrieu and the Expression of Viognier

Your journey continues south to the Condrieu wine region, home of some of the finest Viognier in the world. In this renowned appellation, you’ll taste intensely aromatic white wines with floral and stone-fruit notes, and gain insight into why Viognier reaches such remarkable expression on these granite slopes.
