OUR WINES

Wines to share

in the pure Beaujolais tradition

Thanks to the exceptional terroirs of our vines and know-how passed down from generation to generation, all our wines are labeled with their respective AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée).

Our wines are made by passionate winegrowers, to offer you sunny bottles to uncork in good company, as an aperitif or around a good meal.

The Fleurie appellation

The Fleurie appellation extends only to the commune of the same name, dominated by the Madone hill. Its soil is made up of 90% pink granite.
Its carmine red color, its fruitiness, but also the great female figures linked to these places have led people to say that it is "the most feminine wine of Beaujolais"!

Chardonnay

The only white grape variety benefiting from an AOC in Beaujolais, Chardonnay today only represents 2% of the vineyard.
However, this is changing: won over by its peach and citrus aromas offered by the temperate climate and soils of Beaujolais, more and more winegrowers are now producing it!

Marthe

4th owner of the estate, Marthe preferred white wine. She therefore planted Chardonnay vines in the 1950s, which still produce delicious grapes today from which our Beaujolais-Villages Blancs come!
