Georges highly contributed to the reintroduction of Viognier on the hillsides of the region when in the 1960's the appellation used to cover only 8 hectares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeorges Vernay's pioneering work single-handedly rescued Condrieu from near-extinction — at the time, barely eight hectares remained under vine in the entire appellation. Today the domaine is managed by Georges’ daughter Christine and her husband Paul. The vineyard covers 8 hectares in Condrieu, 2.5 hectares in Côte-Rôtie and 1.5 hectares in Saint-Joseph, with the rest located in IGP Collines Rhôdaniennes and Côtes-du-Rhône.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor over 20 years, Christine Vernay has used organic farming methods, considering herself the custodian of a land for which she is responsible for caring. Under her stewardship, the domaine is regarded as the definitive reference for Viognier, while its Côte-Rôtie and Saint-Joseph bottlings have earned equal acclaim for their purity and refusal to over-oak, letting each terroir speak for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Georges Vernay","offers":[{"title":"6 x 750 ml","offer_id":46091372363846,"sku":"VSSK-03301-Case - 6 x 750 ml","price":620.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 x 750 ml","offer_id":46091371216966,"sku":"VSSK-03301","price":109.8,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/5177\/8374\/files\/dgter.png?v=1785919319","url":"https:\/\/thevintageclub.sg\/products\/domaine-georges-vernay-saint-joseph-terres-dencre-red-2023","provider":"The Vintage Wine Club Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
