What is Estate De Boisseyt and why is it unique
Located in Chavanay, Estate De Boisseyt is one of the oldest wine properties in the Northern Rhône, with records dating back to 1797. In 2017, the estate entered a new chapter under the leadership of Romain Decelle, bringing fresh energy and precision to this historic domaine.

Which grape varieties are grown at Estate De Boisseyt
Syrah is the key red grape, thriving on granite soils in Côte-Rôtie and Saint-Joseph, where it produces wines of finesse and structure. For whites, Viognier is the star in Condrieu, supported by Marsanne and Roussanne in Saint-Joseph. Young vineyards also contribute to accessible and fresh IGP cuvées. Native yeasts, low intervention, and tailored aging (in stainless steel, barrels, or demi-muids) allow each plot to express its character with clarity.
What wine style defines Estate De Boisseyt
De Boisseyt wines are known for their precision and balance. The Syrahs are refined, with aromas of black fruit, violet, white pepper and a touch of smokiness. They are fresh, structured and persistent on the palate, with silky tannins. The whites—especially Condrieu—balance volume and tension, with notes of apricot, floral lift and underlying minerality. These are expressive, artisanal wines with both energy and elegance.
What food pairings go well with wines from Estate De Boisseyt
The reds pair well with grilled meats, herb-braised beef, game, or mushroom-forward vegetarian dishes. Condrieu wines shine with noble shellfish, creamy poultry dishes, aromatic Asian cuisine or aged cheeses. Saint-Joseph whites go beautifully with grilled fish, quenelles or southern French vegetable dishes. The natural balance of the wines makes them excellent partners for thoughtful, seasonal cuisine.
