Guillaume Rouget (son of the famous Emmanuel Rouget who was the apprentice of the legendary Burgundian grand master Henri Jayer), and Frédéric Jametton have joined forces to create a new project in the Beaujolais. Domaine Vernus is located in the hillside town of Régnié-Durette in the heart of the region. They now farm around 12ha in and around the village. Most of the vineyards consist of old vines planted in granit soils. The farming is done on a lutte raisonnée basis where sustainability and maintaining biodiversity is key.
The domaine takes the traditional Burgundian winemaking approach rather than using Beaujolais’s well known (semi) carbonic maceration. The signature wine of Vernus is the wine from the Regnie which is fragrant and structured, and could be one of the lightest style of the 10 Beaujolais crus. Expect Beaujolais greenness combined with Burgundy suaveness.

Situated in the southern part of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy, The Chevrot family has been making wine in Les Maranges since 1830. Today, the two brothers Pablo and Vincent Chevrot run the show, and they are combining old school techniques with a modern mindset to produce fresh, lively and balanced wines.
While the legendary Domaine Comtes Lafon often steals the spotlight, the Lafon family has been doing exceptional work in the under-appreciated region of Mâconnais in the southern part of Burgundy for more than 20 years.
This is very much a family business with mom, pops, and the two children doing all the work in both vineyard, cellar, and in the office. Piero Busso is still at the helm of the domaine that he established in the early 1950s.
