Jean Foillard’s estate comprises of 11 ha, including 5 ha in the fabled Côte de Py climat. A vigneron like Jean Foillard doesn't come around too often. Jean Foillard and his wife Agnès started their handkerchief-size domain in Morgon in the 1980's when the majority of appellation, driven by big negoces, were and are still producing industrial wines. Undeterred by their surroundings, Jean and Agnès decided to embark on their own path. They returned to honest vine growing and wine making the way their grandparents did. The vines are grown organically. The same attention is paid in their cellar. There are no pumps to move the wines at any stage in the chai. Every move of the wine in the cellar, from racking to bottling, is done by gravity. There are no additives in the cellar to hide shortcuts in the vineyards because there are no shortcuts in the vineyards. The hand-harvested grapes are fermented using natural yeasts only.
