Gourmet products local specialties and wines Saint-Péray

Champagne has its pink Reims cookies, Saint-Péray has its chips: a specialty that dates back to 1871. This patisserie is renowned for its Malavieille chips, sweet rolled cookies in the shape of a chip, delicately scented with orange blossom. This delicacy celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2021! The shavings can be eaten crunchy or softer, depending on your taste, at teatime or as an aperitif, or even as a dessert. The chef also concocts madeleines, suisses and other sweets in his workshop.

This barn is the result of a group of ten or so producers from the Drôme and Ardèche who decided to open and run a direct sales shop at the entrance to Saint-Péray, ideal for shopping. On the shelves, the delicious wines of Pascal Jamet, producer in Arras-sur-Rhône, the beef and pears of Philippe and Florent Cros in Boffres, the vegetables of Rosa and Jean-Pierre Vial in Bourg-lès-Valence, the goat and ewe's milk cheeses of Nathalie and Alain Noyer in Mariac, the jams and chestnut cream of Martine, Michel and Aurélien Grange in Lamastre, fruit from Jean-Paul Laprat in Saint-Laurent-du-Pape, eggs, potatoes, raspberries and chestnuts from Véronique, André and Fabien Moins in Chalencon, lamb from Sylvie Volle in Dornas and charcuterie from Pascal Robin in Rochessauve. Among the newcomers in the house: Yann-Vari Carel from Mas de Barral in Marsanne, for ducks and duck foie gras, and Eric Roumeysi from Ardoix for chickens, guinea fowl and other poultry. And to get to know all these producers who are committed to quality, a film shows you the daily work on the farms. More than one reason to stop by. An address recommended by the Futé. And keep an eye out on Facebook: tasting days are regularly organised by this or that producer around ostrich meat, ewe's milk yoghurt... A very nice initiative that deserves a detour to shop, bring back souvenirs...

It was in Roman times that the vineyard of Saint-Péray appeared. The first cuvée of the effervescent Saint-Peray was developed in 1826 in the cellars of Beauregard Castle. Since then, its popularity has grown steadily. Lamartine, Daudet, Proust will give it in their narratives, Wagner was also a great follower. AOC Saint-Peray dates from December 8, 1936. As for the respectable and joyous Brotherhood of Saint-Peray Wine, founded in 1990, its mission is to promote the wines of Saint-Péray. Every year, the first weekend of September, it gives you an appointment for the large wine market of Côtes du Rhône. The occasion saves, in a calm and jovial atmosphere, the tranquil Saint-Peray with aromas of aubthorines, violet and acacia and the Saint-Peray champagnes, appreciated for its fine bubbles at times of delicacies and feasts. The opportunity also for new inducements and ambassadors who commit Saint-Péray and Saint Vincent, the bosses of the winegrowers, to behave as faithful and worthy companions, as a mouthpiece of the valiant and rugged supporters of the slopes of Saint-Péray, to work to preserve the centuries-old traditions of hospitality, humor and in good humor, to honor the dignified bottle and wear the glass high for its reputation. In the program, besides the great wine market, the Prestige Day and the Feast of Saint Vincent. Most wine cellars in the area offer you tasting and even animation. Let yourself be seduced.

Owner and harvester Stéphane Robert is a rigorous and conscientious winemaker who produces top-quality vins de pays d'Ardèche.

A range of white, rosé (in season) and red wines of different gustatory qualities, elaborated with research and great finesse. We can't recommend that you go and taste the wines, as you won't leave empty-handed. Their advice is invaluable for making the right choice of white wines, red wines, the best food pairings and vice versa.

In the Michel family, tradition and passion for wine have been passed down from father to son. Johann's great-grandfather, François Michel, played a major role in the creation of the famous AOC cornas. Then it was his father who took over and rebuilt the sadly abandoned vineyard. This rescue represents, today, a farm of about 4 ha. Johann manages his estate in a sustainable way: manual harvesting, sorting of the harvest, and limited yields. Its cornas, cited and awarded at the greatest national competitions, deserves the palace. 2003 and 2004 were particularly successful. So do not hesitate, by appointment, to visit this renowned estate.

It was in 1980 that Jean-Louis Thiers made his first bottling in this family estate. Today, he manages this property of 5 ha of Saint-Perray and one hectare of cornas. It offers one of the best Saint-Peraies in the appellation using the Champagne method, based on Marsanne. A festive wine at a reasonable price. It comes from a selection of old vine parcels, vinified in vats and aged in barrels for 12 months. It is a lively, balanced, pleasant wine. To discover, the Côtes-du-Rhône region is the result of a syrah of about fifty years. A robust wine, with aromas of red fruits. The solid and distinguished cornas comes from a plot where the vines are in their sixties.
