Our History
The Union of Côtes du Rhône winemakers – their story
Created in 1967, the Union of Côtes du Rhône winegrowers (UVCDR) brings together 2,300 winemaking families in the southern Rhône Valley. Its territory covers 12,500 hectares of vines and around 20 AOCs. Based on deeply human values, boldness, and diligence, the UVCDR exports to 50 countries, shipping 40 million bottles a year.
Cellier des Dauphins: quintessential Rhône Valley wines
Founded in 1967 by the UVCDR, Cellier des Dauphins has become the pride of our winemakers and risen to regional pre-eminence. Its delicious sun-drenched wines are highly esteemed and synonymous with the voluptuous south’s art de vivre. Over the years, its renown has grown driven by constant innovation.
Rich Terroirs
The Cellier des Dauphins vineyards lie in the Rhône Valley, the foothills of the southern Alps rising in the distance. In these terroirs, sun-drenched vines swaying in the southern breeze, grow the renowned grape varieties that have made the Côtes du Rhône famous: Syrah, Grenache, Viognier and many others regional grapes.
Such diversity enables our winemakers to produce aromatic blended wines of great complexity. Among the Côtes du Rhône AOCs are 20 Côtes du Rhône Villages appellations, including the most well known: Plan de Dieu, Puyméras and Valréas. Exceptional terroirs produce the most illustrious Crus: Châteauneuf-du-pape, Vacqueyras, Vinsobres and Cairanne.
The wines labelled Les Dauphins are a range of Côtes du Rhône wines crafted with a resolutely contemporary character – what we call “bistro spirit.” These wines have been selected and aged in a way that fully develops their wide aromatic range. They are perfect for aperitifs and cocktail dining.
