In a few words ...
Cave Yves Cuilleron is first and foremost a family estate. A passion for the vine has been in the family for three generations. It was in 1920 that yves' grandfather claude founded the domaine in chavanay. In 1987, yves took over the 3.5-hectare estate from his uncle antoine. The following year, the winemaker produced his first côte-rôtie vintage. After building a new winery in verlieu, yves cuilleron expanded the domaine by buying vines in saint-péray and cornas. With other winemaker friends (jean-michel gerin, pierre-jean villa, françois villard and pierre gaillard), he opens the bistrot de serine in ampuis and vins de vienne (gaillard, villard). Yves pays particular attention to the quality of his vines and refuses to accept "ready-made" solutions. His vision of viticulture is entirely personal: neither conventional, nor organic, nor biodynamic. His philosophy is simple: produce the best grapes possible. The vineyard cannot be mechanized, and the need for a large workforce is characteristic of "haute couture" vineyard work. Vigilant management of the vegetative cycle also translates into distinguished know-how. The low

Cave Yves Cuilleron
Cave Yves Cuilleron is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 11 wines available to purchase, including the wine Madinière 2016.
Appellation
Côte-Rôtie
The appellation Côte-Rôtie is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Cave Yves Cuilleron and its 11 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
