The La Vrille Winery was established in 2005. The philosophy of the company is to offer guests a family atmosphere and to let customers experience the authenticity and simplicity of the place they are in.

The company consists of 3 hectares of vineyards, mainly located in a natural amphitheater with a south/southeast exposure around the winery.

The lands of Hervé give life to the grape varieties Muscat, Vuillermin, Petit Rouge, Cornalin, Fumin, Pinot Noir, and Nebbiolo.

Work in the vineyards focuses on respecting nature. Hervé indeed takes great care of the plants to ensure a healthy and ripe grape harvest. The process continues in the winery, in the spaces carved into the rock, where natural processes for winemaking are followed without unnecessary and excessive manipulation of the wine.
