This wine comes from old vines dating back to 1945, expressing exceptional richness and depth. The Gamay grape is magnificently showcased on a terroir of granitic soil. Meticulous winemaking, with destemmed grapes and extended maceration, gives this Beaujolais a velvety and complex texture. Aging in new oak barrels further refines its structure, allowing it to improve with age. A characterful red wine to cellar.

Domaine de Thulon
Located on the slopes of Beaujolais, Domaine de Thulon is situated in the former farm buildings of Château de Thulon, whose origins date back to the 15th century. The estate now cultivates approximately 16.5 hectares of vines, spread across the steep slopes characteristic of the area.
After working as sharecroppers for about twenty years, Annie and René acquired the estate in 1987, which at the time comprised 8 hectares of vines and the farm buildings. They gradually developed on-site bottling, laying the foundations of the current estate and passing on winemaking expertise to subsequent generations.
The vineyard is planted on slopes where mechanization remains limited, which means that work is predominantly manual throughout the year, from vine maintenance to harvesting. This geographical constraint encourages a careful and consistent approach to the vineyard, adapted to the specific characteristics of the Beaujolais terroir.
