La Vrille Winery

The La Vrille holiday farm and winery is located in the municipality of Verrayes, in the centre of Aosta Valley, at 670 metres above sea level. It is located along the route of the Via Francigena, in the heart of the Valle d'Aosta vineyards, and its terraces offer a splendid view of Mont Avic and Mont Emilius. The vineyards are mainly located in a natural amphitheatre and enjoy excellent exposure to the sun throughout the year. Pinot Noir (originally from the French region of Bourgogne) and the indigenous wines Vuillermin, Petit Rouge, Cornalin, Fumin and Chambave Muscat, a historic wine in the tradition of the Valle d'Aosta, are grown here, which is processed in the dry and raisin versions.
The first vinification in the cellar took place in 2005.
In the barrel cellar, vaulted with Verrayes' green stone, the Fumin, Pinot Noir, Vuillermin and the Clairetz (the winery's latest) are aged in tonneaux. This same room, small and cosy, hosts the tasting sessions.
