Northern Rhône Valley

Northern Rhône Valley: A Land of Vineyards and Discovery

Between Vienne and Valence, the Northern Rhône Valley unveils a mosaic of landscapes shaped by vineyards — from steep hillsides and peaceful rivers to charming villages. At the heart of this exceptional wine region lies a destination awarded the “Vignobles & Découvertes” (Vineyards & Discoveries) label since 2011.

Originally known as "From Hermitage to Saint-Joseph", the area has embarked on a new journey to highlight the richness of its heritage, the diversity of its wine tourism offerings, and the excellence of its craftsmanship. This collective energy is driven by passionate men and women: winemakers, restaurateurs, hosts, guides, producers, and local tourism professionals.

The Northern Rhône Valley offers a true sensory journey through seven emblematic appellations:
Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, Cornas, Saint-Péray, Hermitage, and Crozes-Hermitage.
These prestigious names, rich in history and character, showcase the full diversity of the valley's terroirs.

The “Vignobles & Découvertes” label guarantees a curated selection of high-quality addresses and activities designed to immerse you in the world of wine:
• Guided tastings at wineries and estates
• Vineyard walks, on foot or by bike
• Meetings with passionate winemakers
• Charming accommodations in the heart of the vineyards
• Gourmet dining celebrating local products
• Wine tourism events and activities throughout the year

Whether solo, as a couple, with family or friends, the Northern Rhône Valley invites you to slow down, savor each moment, and discover a vibrant, authentic, and generous land.
