Guillaume has found a passion for winemaking and what he loves is to make people smile by making them travel through his wines. This small estate of four hectares concentrates solely on the production of two crus: Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly. These are made from a single grape variety: black gamay with white juice. He wishes to concentrate on his two appellations in order to perfectly master their typicities.

Our story

The farm is located in St Lager, in the heart of the Beaujolais crus, since 1947. We took over the family estate in 2015, we are the 3rd generation. The estate covers only 7 hectares and focuses solely on the production of 2 crus, Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly. All our vines are exposed on the south-east side of the Brouilly mountain. They thus benefit from a privileged sunshine which brings to our wines an exceptional richness in aroma. Our wines are made from a single grape variety, the black Gamay with white juice, and the grapes are harvested exclusively by hand.

My career path is a bit atypical, although I come from the agricultural world, but more to the west of the Beaujolais, I first worked in agricultural and forestry work.
I discovered the profession later on after meeting my wife. Since 2002, I have been harvesting grapes and have become passionate about working in the vineyard. My father-in-law always said to his daughter: "you have to bring back one who knows how to drive a tractor", that's how I started and since then, I've become passionate about this beautiful job.

Other little stories

To be a winemaker is to love working with nature, discovering the senses to make the best wine and human contact during marketing. The latter is the one I am beginning to discover with great pleasure, giving people a smile by making them travel through my wine makes me a little more delighted every day.Currently most of the estates are racing for the number of hectares and the multiplication of appellations. Contrary to this current fashion, we wish to concentrate on small areas in order to work them as well as possible and to concentrate on 2 appellations in order to master perfectly their typicity. Many people do not know that there are 2 distinct crus: Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly. We strive to enhance these 2 completely different terroirs, and to do so, we use the traditional Beaujolais winemaking method which allows us to sublimate them.
