HISTORY OF THE DOMAIN

Seven appellations throughout Beaujolais and all owned since 1926. We find the granite, stony and shallow soils of North Beaujolais, characterized by their ability to produce high-quality wines. Each plot is cared for, nothing is left to chance. The implementation of a sustainable production clearly demonstrates the desire to respect the environment, natural regulation and observation. David, the winemaker ( recognized twice as winemaker of the year by the Rvf on 2 different estates ) practices clean viticulture, harvests entirely by hand, and lets the terroir of each vintage speak. The estate now has 20 ha in HVE3 , and in organic conversion for its whites. It also produces Beaujolais Nouveaux without added sulfur as well as a very good Crémant de Bourgogne.

FOOD AND WINE PAIRING

It is enjoyed with meats in sauces, game and cheeses: duck breast, small game and cheese.
