"The teams produce wines of exceptional quality by combining terroir and modernity. Bernard Burtschy (great French oenologist expert), seduced by the Villamont wines, agrees." (Le Figaro)
 
The history of Villamont wine estate began in 1880 in Savigny-les-Beaune. Today the 10 hectare vineyard covers prestigious appellations such as Savigny-les-Beaune, Chambolle Musigny and Grands Echezeaux. At the end of the 19th century, the architect Albert Suisse built a magnificent cellar, impressive of modernity. "These cellars are today one of the most beautiful monuments of the Burgundy wine trade." (Le Figaro)

"A superb wine", "A true Bouzeron"
(Guide Hachette about "Les Trois" 2017)

The Chanzy wine estate was created in 1974 in Bouzeron but its origins date back to the 16th century, as the cellars and the wine press testify. The vineyards are mainly located in Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune, but also in Côte de Nuits.

The wine estate has been certified HVE (High Environmental Value) since this year. Chanzy's quest for excellence is reflected in the long and precise work in the vineyard and in the cellar, the identity of the different terroirs is respected in order to produce qualitative and unique vintages.

Located in Mercurey, in the heart of Burgundy, the L.Tramier & Fils wine estate has been combining tradition and innovation since 1842. It is thanks to these two key words that it is today one of the most beautiful cellars in Burgundy (among the first 50 in the region out of 3,800 wine estates, no less!).

The bottles are stored in vaulted cellars built in 1830, the only ones in Mercurey entirely dug into the rock, thus maintaining a constant temperature, ideal for the conservation and ageing of the wines.

"The wines are constantly improving and are enhanced by skilful ageing. (Bettane et Desseauve)

The wine estate was created in 1999 by Jean-Louis Giornal, an accountant for winegrowers who wanted to become a winegrower himself!It was his friend François Perrin of the famous Château de Beaucastel, who taught him the winemaking process at his wine estate Grand Prébois.  His daughter Florence and her husband Thomas took over the reins of La Durbane in 2019:

"Our aim for the future is to learn with the Perrin family. We are already almost organic. Very concerned about climate change, we try to reduce our waste (in everyday life and business life) as far as possible, and are working on the reduction of the Estate Carbon footprint."

"Buy everything that they are willing to part with. The wines are that remarkable." (European Cellars)

"This is the prettiest version of this cuvée I can remember tasting. (...) it's showing delicate garrigue notes and kirsch on the nose, ample weight and creamy tannins on the mid-palate, then folds in complex notes of tea and dried spices on the long finish." (Parker about Châteauneuf Très Vieilles Vignes 2017)

Château du Mourre du Tendre has been in the family for 7 generations. In 2013, Paul Paumel took over the wine estate when he was only 18 years old, making him the youngest winegrower in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. He perpetuates the family heritage with the know-how instilled by his grandfather, everything is done manually, never using pesticides in the vines...

"Charming, bold and structured, the wines age beautifully and gracefully, even the Côtes-du-Rhône." (European Cellars)

"Immediate harmony" (Bettane et Desseauve)

"One of the last independent, family-run wine merchants on the Bordeaux market." (Terroir Evasion)

The Bouey family's wine-growing adventure began in 1821 when Jean Bouey acquired the first parcel of vines in the heart of Médoc. Today, in addition to its own wine estates, the Bouey family owns its own trading house and can boast partnerships with more than a hundred Châteaux. Proud of its independence, the Maison Bouey is today managed by its only shareholders Patrick and Jacques Bouey. Their great Bordeaux wines are regularly rewarded in guides and competitions.

"Elegance and Complexity" - Le Monde about La Pucelle de Romorantin

The Marionnet family arrived at Domaine de La Charmoise in Sologne in the middle of the last century. Henry Marionnet and his son Jean-Sébastien (now at the controls) are specialists in the forgotten grape varieties of Touraine and vinification with little or no sulphur. Six hectares are planted with so-called "franc de pied" vines, i.e. without rootstock, as in the past, before the great phylloxera crisis. The wines of Marionnet do not know wood, it is the fruit that prevails, and it is rumoured that the wines do not make you drunk. It's up to you to check...
