The latest generations of a family who have been making wine since 1789, we are proud to offer you wines from three different appellations:
Our vineyards, situated on the granitic soils of the communes of Lancié and Fleurie, produce wines that marry finesse, perfume and body, and which glory in their bright ruby, violet-tinged, hues.
No visit to the Beaujolais would be fully complete without a stop at the domain. We will give you the warmest of welcomes and an opportunity to taste our wines.
With our generation-spanning history and our wine-makers’ know-how, we are now focusing more than ever on our customers. We are determined to offer you wines that respect the well-being of man and the needs of the environment. Our procedures are now fully traceable, from our work in the vines to our vinifying the grapes, all so that we can offer you the best possible wines, fully worthy of their appellations.
Andre established his domain in 1960, with 3 hectares of vines. In 1972, Serge, Andre's son, set himself up on his own estate. Sixteen years later, in 1988, father and son decided to merge the two properties and created the domain
Today, the domain comprises 7.8 hectares of Beaujolais, 20 hectares of Beaujolais Villages and 7.3 hectares of the cru Fleurie. The vineyards are spread across the communes of Lancié and Fleurie.
Only one grape is cultivated: Gamay.
Our soils are predominantly shallow and granitic, although there are variations between the different plots.
We work very hard in the vines, so as to obtain the highest quality from every single plant: we debud; we prune each vine appropriately; and we maintain a density of 8000-10000 plants per hectare. Some vines require trellising.
We pick entirely by hand, with two separate selections; firstly in the vines, and secondly when the grapes arrive at the cellar.

VITICULTURE
We cultivate our vineyards traditionally; we allow a controlled amount of grass to grow in every second row, and we plough up the other rows.We work very hard in the vines, so as to obtain the highest quality from every single plant: we debud; we prune each vine appropriately; and we maintain a density of 8000-10000 plants per hectare. Some vines require trellising.
