Our 6 ha organic family estate in the hamlet of ‘La Bottière’. Burgundian-style vinification gives elegant and complex wine, part of which is matured in the oak barrels that wall our tasting cellar.
Langue parlée: Anglais
The estate has been in the family for 5 generations. Our estate buildings include a vinification cellar, a maturing cellar and a tasting cellar, set in the heart of our vines in a pleasant setting and a magnificent view of the village of Juliénas. Tending the vines is our passion, come and share it with us and find out about it.
Overlooked by its 12th century Romanesque chapel, the estate has retained the gentle outline of vineyard surrounded dwellings. Respecting the original stones and woodwork, the inside has been renovated to comfortable modern standards.
On the slopes of Fleurie, 1.5 km from the main village; Valérie, Bruno and Cyril welcome you to their family estate. We will give you a tasting of our estate wines: Chénas, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent and Beaujolais Villages.
It was in 1890 that Antoine Vermorel, my vinegrower-winemaker great-grandfather in Fleurie at ‘Le Point du Jour’, bought the farmhouse at ‘Les Grands Fers’ to manage his estate from. After over 120 years and three generations, I am proud to have been stewarding my great-grandfather’s little estate that is made up of the most fabulous terroirs in the Fleurie appellation area – including Les Roches, Les Garants, Les Côtes and Les Moiriers – since 1991. Vine-tending that is close to nature, made up of observation and patience, well thought-out vinification following absolute tradition and long and noble wood maturing (barrels and tuns) bring out the pedigree of our old Gamay vines giving deep coloured, redolent, rich and thoroughbred wines.
Discover our family estate and taste our 6 appellations. Passion, respect for the terroir and traditional vinification, mean that we extract all the nuances from our single grape variety: the Gamay.
Set in the charming commune of Fleurie in the Beaujolais region, Château de Grand Pré boasts a great southeast facing aspect with a panoramic view over the Saône Valley. Our vineyards are tended organically and are certified Ecocert.
Directly linked to the terroirs they came from, our natural wines express their different personalities; from refined and delicate aromas and flavours to more complex stone fruit notes.
Come and try them on the estate.
Our estate is on a single 6.18 ha spread of south southwest facing vineyards with a magnificent view over the Beaujolais hills. It is on the famous slope called La Côte des Garands, which gives elegant wines well-suited to ageing.
Sylvie and Jean-Paul Champagnon will be delighted to welcome you on their family estate in the centre of the village, where they make traditional wines from different terroirs and have several vintages on sale.
