“By never stopping tasting in the best winemakers cellars, we learn the great wine ‘culture,’ the essential ingredient to understand wine and ‘terroirs’” – Michel Tardieu

Michel Tardieu is one of the most highly acclaimed négociants in the Rhône. He works with 60 to 70 vignerons throughout the northern and southern Rhône.

Two-thirds of Michel’s production is in the southern Rhône, where his working relationships include 10 growers in Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Michel’s talents have been widely recognized for having secured long-term, hand-shake deals with vignerons who carefully guard the location of their 50- to 100-plus-year-old vines.

Within a few short years, Tardieu-Laurent became known as one of the Rhone Valley’s finest producers and Michel Tardieu as one of its most gifted winemakers.

Selection and hand-crafting of wines at this level can only be accomplished on a small scale. Today his production remains limited with two thirds coming from the southern Rhone and one third from the North.

The wines are coveted by connoisseurs throughout the world and have earned consistently high praise from numerous respected wine critics.

Anyone interested in exploring the splendors of the Rhone Valley would be fortunate to do it with the wines of Tardieu-Laurent.
