Producer Information

The story begins more than 300 years ago, with Jean Loron in the steep slopes of Beaujolais, in the heart of the village of Chenas. Unlike his parents who work various crops - including vines - like many farmers at the time, Jean decided to specialize in viticulture. Located in an exceptional environment, the vineyards of the Beaujolais and Maconnais vineyards are endowed with a rich and complex geology, mixed with a meteorology with multiple influences. These two vineyards are located between Lyon and Beaune, in the southernmost part of Greater Burgundy. Beaujolais and Maconnais are ancestral vineyards where hills and valleys run for about fifty kilometers each, with the foothills of the Massif Central in the west and the plain of the Saône in the east. Finally, ¾ of these vineyards are planted in Gamay Noir in Beaujolais, and in Chardonnay in Maconnais.
