STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Nestled within the charming village of Vergisson, at the very core of the expansive natural wonder that is Deux Roches, you'll find the Guerrin et Fils estate, encompassing an impressive 14 hectares. This family-run vineyard has recently welcomed the son, representing the fourth generation of dedicated winegrowers, all driven by their unwavering passion for winemaking. With more than 35 distinct plots, this vineyard is a tapestry of soils, delivering an extraordinary range of terroirs. While some of these terroirs are meticulously plowed, others are carefully tended by hand, reflecting the commitment and precision that goes into the craft, often yielding delightful surprises.

This old-vine cuvée from Domaine Guerrin is a blend of three different sites around Vergisson, made entirely with fruit from vines which are at least 40-years-old. Hand-harvested and gently pressed, the wine is then fermented in barrel and aged sur lie.
