It is in Theizé in Southern Beaujolais in the very heart of Pierres Dorées (golden stone) Country, where the quite steep hilly terrain overlooks the Saône Valley. We work our vines in respect for nature, keeping the yields moderate and using traditional vinification methods to bring you fleshy, fruity and balanced wines.

The chai and the estate are in Blacé, in a 12th century priory. The latter was home to Grandmontine monks, who tended the vines surrounding the château up to 1769. Today, the estate spreads over 9 ha of vines, which give directly onto the chai. Our estate also includes vineyards in Villié-Morgon (1ha) and Saint Lager (3ha). The estate is organic certified for the vines in Saint Lager (AOC Brouilly). We use eco-friendly techniques for the rest of the estate, including shallow-ploughing between the vines.
