Located 1 km north of the village of Fleurie, in Roche-Guillon, this family estate has been passed down through five generations, a testament to their loyalty to the vineyard. Now managed by Bruno and his family, the 12-hectare estate produces wines under the Fleurie, Fleurie "Clos de la Tour," Moulin-à-Vent, Chénas, and Beaujolais-Villages appellations. The vineyards, planted on steep, granite-based slopes with south-east exposure and an altitude of over 350 meters, yield grapes with exceptional ripeness and a delicate structure typical of the appellation. Vinification and aging remain traditional to preserve the terroir's typicity, showcasing fruity notes, soft tannins, and richness. Dedicated to sustainability, the estate practices environmentally conscious viticulture, adapting to each vintage to ensure the best expression of their land.

From a producer based in Fleurie, this rich wine comes from a three-acre parcel of vines that are up to 90 years old. It is full of bold tannins as well as ripe black-cherry fruits and a touch of pepper. Drink this dense wine now.
