With these important words: the pleasure of sharing.

They welcome you to their cellar to help you discover the estate's wines, under 4 different appellations, in red, still white and sparkling white. You can come and taste a number of crus from the Northern Rhône Valley:

* AOC Saint-Péray (still and sparkling white)
* AOC Cornas (red)
* AOC Crozes-Hermitage (red)
* AOC Saint-Joseph (red).

Alain Voge passed away in September 2020, but left behind him a winegrowing legacy and some renowned wines, from his estate that he turned into one of the key Cornas and Saint-Péray estates.
Albéric Mazoyer guided the estate through fifteen vintage wines between 2004 and 2018, before handing it over to Lionel Fraisse who, along with the estate's team, concentrated his passion and expertise into expressing the unique nature of the 12 hectares on the hillsides. The work is done entirely by hand, allowing the team to work as closely as possible to the vines. They are now taking this great quality even further thanks to the conversion of the estate into organic and biodynamic farming practices.

Today, Stéphane Chaboud, representing the family's 6th generation, and Charlène Cellier, oenologist, have joined forces to run the 13-hectare estate.

This wine, unique in the world, has always been talked about, be it by famous writers who enjoyed it (Lamartine, Maupassant, Daudet), kings and other well-known names such as the Tsar of Russia or composers such as Wagner. Today, history is catching up with the estate and it is now up to Stéphane Chaboud, a direct descendant of the 6th generation, to lead the 13-hectare estate on the road to success and recognition with lovers of good wine. The estate's vineyard is on gentle slopes with limestone and calcareous-clay deposits, ideal for growing white grapes. But the estate doesn't stop there as it also produces Côtes du Rhône, Saint-Joseph and Cornas wines. The whole estate is in fact made up of 10 hectares devoted to Saint-Péray, 2 hectares to Cornas, 1 hectare to Saint-Joseph and 1.5 hectares to Côtes du Rhône.

All the vintage wines on offer are produced and aged in vats. For the Cornas, the ageing process is long and in barrels (between 12 and 18 months), and the maceration process is also very long. The white Saint Péray is 100% Roussanne with a traditional vinification method and a fermentation of 3 weeks at an average temperature of between 16° and 18°. The white Saint-Péray Grande Réserve is also made according to a traditional method of vinification with 100% Marsanne. The ageing process 'sur lattes' (on trays) lasts 36 months before riddling and disgorging. However, the estate offers its own selection for an informed public or those wishing to learn the secrets of historic wines such as with the Saint-Péray Marsanne (aromatic, floral, spicy but round and rich in the mouth, a refreshing wine), the Saint-Péray Cuvée Alexandre 2011 (floral wine, aromatic especially with eucalyptus), the Saint-Péray Roussanne 2011 which is fruity, floral, tasty and provides a nice return on the white fruit. All these exceptional wines have remained renowned through history and there is no doubt that this is just the beginning, much to everyone's delight.
