Meet the producer
The story
The domaine operates in the small hamlet of Corcelette, between Villié-Morgon and Chiroubles. The vineyards are family-owned and the operation is that of a small artisanal winery: the producer works many historic parcels in Morgon and other crus of the area, showcasing old vines and individual lieux-dits such as Corcelette, Bellevue and Pré-Jourdan.
Production philosophy
Terroir-driven winemaking: emphasis on vineyard parcels and old vines, minimal intervention in the cellar, sparing use of SO2 and ageing methods that favour foudres and stainless-steel tanks over new wood. The stated aim is to allow Gamay to express the vineyard's character without excessive manipulation.
Terroir and vineyards
Main locations: Corcelette with parcels named Cailloux and Sable; other vineyards include Bellevue, Pré-Jourdan, Les Delys, parcels in Chiroubles and a cuvée on the Côte de Brouilly. The estate is in Beaujolais, France.
