Founded in 1960.
It is currently run by the third generation, Olivier Goujon.
He has been helping out at the winery since he was 12 years old and grew up with winemaking, so he is a winemaker with a strong passion and enthusiasm for wine.
The vineyards are on gentle slopes and the soil is made up of limestone and clay, formed by the rich minerals from the river.
"The soil is not suitable for Cabernet varieties.
We are committed to producing wines that specialize in Merlot, with the belief that this will produce a wonderful Merlot with attractive acidity.
In addition, we focus on the environment and quality rather than yield, and use sustainable farming methods.
Because no chemical approach is used, the risk of disease is higher, but he says, "It's important to respect the ecosystem and not intervene too much."
We perform a night harvest and strictly control the temperature of the harvested grapes, sparing no effort.
Fermentation takes place in custom-made cement tanks.
Cement tanks with chimney-like vents at the top allow for the removal of oxygen evolved during maceration and fermentation.
This protects the must from oxygen, producing the ideal wine that is fresh and fruity.
