Rated estate (2021 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
Since 1937, the Paul Janin et Fils estate has been producing Moulin-à-Vent and red and white Beaujolais-Villages wines. Eric Janin, the current owner, represents the fourth generation. He inherited a series of investments that are the foundation of the estate’s success today. In 1937, his grandfather purchased the famous vineyard known as Le Tremblay, and in 1967, his father acquired what is now the estate’s flagship cuvée: the century-old vines of Les Greneriers. Éric Janin is also the father of young Perrine, who is studying oenology and is in turn pursuing the investments necessary to ensure the estate’s long-term viability. This involves, in particular, massal selections to gradually renew his stock of old vines. Difficult years have piled up for the estate, and Éric Janin has not escaped the violence of the hailstorms that have devastated the vineyard over the past three years. To preserve what has built the estate’s reputation, wines purchased from other producers now round out the lineup. More classic in style, these wines are well-crafted. As for the estate’s star wines, they suffer from low yields but do not disappoint in terms of quality. In 2018, the Vignes-du-Tremblay and Greneriers were magnificent successes.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the estate:
The location and age of the vines aren’t everything. It also takes the farmer’s intuition and analytical finesse of someone like Éric Janin to produce great Gamays that are both concentrated and fresh. Since his first harvest in 1983, he has maintained a winemaking approach that highlights vineyards primarily located within the Moulin-à-Vent appellation. Some vines, such as Les Greneriers, have lived through both world wars. In 2017, Éric Janin launched a wine merchant business in partnership with other winemakers. Chénas, Brouilly, and Beaujolais-Villages thus round out his portfolio.
