Jean Paul & Charly Thevenet

Domaine Jean-Paul et Charly Thévenet is a Beaujolais winery located in Villié-Morgon in the northern part of the region, known for being one of the major players in the revival of natural wine in the Morgon appellation. Founded by Jean-Paul Thévenet, a pioneer of the natural wine movement since the 1980s, it is now run by his son Charly, who brings a new energy while respecting the original philosophy.

The estate primarily cultivates Gamay grapes on granitic soils typical of Morgon, often from old vines, and practices organic or biodynamic viticulture with limited intervention in the cellar. Fermentation is natural, often with carbonic maceration, and the wines are neither fined nor filtered, with minimal addition of sulfites if necessary.

The estate's wines, particularly their Morgon "Vieilles Vignes" or "Tradition", are renowned for their pure expression of fruit, their freshness, their structure and their minerality, making this estate a reference in natural Beaujolais.
