Jean-Baptiste Souillard is a winemaker from the Northern Rhone region in France, known for his meticulous approach to viticulture and vinification. His Roussanne vineyard, located in the southern part of the Ardèche, is planted on a steep east-facing slope with granite and sandstone soils at an elevation of 380-450 meters. Souillard practices "lutte raisonnée," a sustainable approach to viticulture that minimizes chemical use.

The 2016 Jean-Baptiste Souillard Roussanne is a white wine with an expressive nose, offering floral and fruity aromas, including violets, fraise tagada, and old wood. On the palate, it is fresh and light, with a mineral and salty character, a hint of noble bitterness, and a herbaceous note. The wine is aged for 12 months in older oak barrels, resulting in a refreshing and well-balanced taste experience, reminiscent of Alto Adige wines.
