Located on the hillsides of the Ain region, in the communes of Saint-Sorlin-en-Bugey and Lagnieu, our family vineyard covers 6.3 hectares. Created in 2000 by Jean-Christophe, the vineyard took on a new dimension in 2020 with the arrival of his two sons, Lucien and Baptiste, thus perpetuating a family adventure driven by a passion for wine, respect for the land and for all living things.

 

Faced with the effects of climate change, the estate has chosen to anticipate and adapt through diversity. In recent years, numerous grape varieties, some forgotten and often later-ripening , have been planted to strengthen the estate's ampelographic diversity. In addition, since 2025, other grape varieties have been progressively introduced through grafting, particularly on plots of Chardonnay and Gamay, which have become less suited to increasingly hot summers.

 

Today the estate has no less than forty grape varieties, allowing the production of a wide range of white, red, still or sparkling wines, reflecting the richness and uniqueness of the vineyard.
The terroir benefits from a great diversity of soils: clay-limestone scree on southwest-facing slopes, with gradients reaching up to 60%, as well as Rhône fluvio-glacial complexes on the flatter areas. This geological mosaic fully contributes to the expression and identity of the wines.

 

Cultivated using biodynamic methods since 2009 and Demeter certified, the estate is committed to a comprehensive approach to environmental responsibility. This approach aims to reduce its ecological impact: bottles are no longer capped to limit waste, and a system for washing and reusing bottles is being implemented using specially designed labels that can be removed with hot water.

A committed, vibrant, and forward-looking viticulture!
