André Perret chooses to eschew the use of any chemicals in the vineyards, as well as any kind of certification for his organic practices. As a former microbiologist, it is evident of his knowledge and devotion to soil health. In the cellar, the same scientific understanding guides a slow and gentle elevage, allowing the wines to express themselves to the fullest extent with minimal oak influence.
The results are energetic and generous, pushed to ripeness by the long droughts of a growing season that tested the patience of both vines and vigneron in Condrieu. Due to his wise picking dates and his gentle hand in the cellar, Perret manages to produce wines that remain lively while showcasing generosity and opulence.
