Widely known as the King of Condrieu, Andre Perret has some of the best vines planted in some of the best terroir of Condrieu and St. Joseph in the Northern Rhone. He graduated in Biology but the passion for the vines lead him back to the village of Verlieu-Chavanay where he grew up.

In 1982 he took over the land from his father, that was largely taken up with fruit trees. André planted it with vines and through acquisitions extended it to its present 13 hectares of steep hillside land. The steep hillside makes it impossible for machinery, so all vines are tended to by hand. These are incredibly special wines to drink and equally good to cellar.
