All of the vineyards in Beaujolais Villages are located in the commune of Lancier. This is the only commune in Beaujolais Villages that is surrounded by the three crus of Morgon, Fleury, and Moulin-à-Vent. The Domaine is led by Gilles Juran, who holds important positions in the Beaujolais Crus Association and the Beaujolais Wine Committee, and his wife Magali. The Domaine's name comes from the plot of land, Clos des Nugues, purchased by the previous owner, Gerard, in 1976. The average age of the vines is now 45 years, and the planted area is 35.3 hectares. Some of the vines are over 100 years old. In 2018, the Domaine was also certified HVE (Environmentally Valued). In order to improve the environment of the vines and the soil, they practice cultivation that minimizes the use of pesticides. We also have a limited number of Gilles' top cuvées, which are only produced in good years. These have the potential to age, and are sometimes so high-level that they remind you of the Pinot Noir of famous appellations!
Please try this high quality Gamay.
