FOREST

Producteur de vin, exploitation familiale de petite taille.Notre exploitation est située au cœur des crus du Beaujolais, sur des vignes en coteaux exposés sud- est. Nous travaillons en agriculture raisonnée depuis 1998, et sommes en conversion bio depuis cette année. Nous attachons beaucoup d'importance à la qualité des vins, aussi tout est récolté manuellement, et nous effectuons un tri minutieux de la vendange, si besoin. Nous restons à votre disposition pour toute information complémentaire qui vous serait utile. The vines have belonged to our families for several generations and we are the fourth generation of wine growers. Our familial domain is composed of : - 4.5 hectares of BEAUJOLAIS VILLAGES, distributed in commune Lantignie, Quincié en Beaujolais, and Beaujeu (the historical capital of the Beaujolais region). The property is situated in commune Lantignié on slope of the Coteau of "Appagnié" oriented South-East.The wines are made of gamay noir, with white juice. The average age of our vineyard is 40 years but we have vines of 100 years too. The grapes are picked manually by seasonal workers (students), friends and our children during six days. It is a very arduous and meticulous work.The vinification is made traditionally with respect of the appellation. But we have been progressing in the use of temperature control. This technique allows us to retain the distinctive flavours and aromas from each of our terroir, in particularly for our Beaujolais Villages Nouveau. The wines are bottled after light filtration in the spring accordingly with the tradition. Don't hesitate to contact me for more information.
