Château de Fleurie

Owned by the Loron heirs, Château de Fleurie—located in the heart of the Fleurie appellation—belongs to the Barbet and Roclore families. It comprises 9 hectares of vineyards, primarily located in Fleurie. Château de Fleurie, situated in the village of Fleurie, tastefully blends history and art. 

Situated between La Roche de Solutré in the Mâconnais region and Moulin-à-Vent in the Beaujolais region, Maison Jean Loron is one of the oldest and largest wine-growing estates in southern Burgundy. Its origins lie in winemaking and date back to 1711. The story began more than 300 years ago with Jean Loron on the steep slopes of the Beaujolais region, in the heart of the village of Chénas. Unlike his parents, who cultivated various crops—including grapes—as many farmers did at the time, Jean decided to specialize in viticulture.

Over the years, Jean Loron’s descendants forged strong partnerships with prestigious names. Several milestones have shaped our history. Finally, in 2016, the handover of leadership from Xavier Barbet—the eighth generation of the Loron family—to Philippe Bardet, a native of Beaujolais and a connoisseur of Burgundy, marked a turning point for Maison Loron, which is now looking to the future more than ever.
