HUGO VERCASSON

Saint - Joseph, Rhône | FRANCE

Born in 1999, Hugo might be young, but he’s already turning heads in the wine world with his amazing knack for crafting Rhône varieties.

Hugo’s story started at Domaine Iserand with Jeff Malsert. In 2021, he set out on his own project, snapping up some steep, high-altitude plots in Arras-sur-Rhône and Eclassan, down in the southern part of the Saint-Joseph appellation.

By 2022, Hugo harvested his first vintage, rolling out three red wines and one white, totalling about 4,500 bottles. In his cellar, he works magic with amphoras and stainless steel, using whole bunches fermentation for delicate extraction to get those fine tannins and a smooth texture. His wines are all about authenticity, with a vibrant sense of place and youthful energy.
