Vin de France Marsanne Cornilhac Julien Cecillon 2024

Founded in 2011, Famille Cécillon is the brainchild of Nancy Kerschen, a US native, and Julien Cécillon, a Tournon-sur-Rhône native and nephew of Jean-Louis Grippat. Brought together by a shared love of wine, food, and travel, the pair launched their estate after having gained experience in the wine world around the globe with a clear desire to convey their passion. Renowned appellations such as Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage, and Saint-Péray, now certified organic, form the beating heart of the estate. In the winery, alcoholic fermentations are triggered by native yeasts, with partially destemmed clusters for the reds, stirring of the lees for the whites and ageing in wood for all the wines in barrels of varying sizes.
