About the estate:
Cathy Duthel and her husband David Duthel took over from Jean-Paul Ruet, who expanded the estate’s bottled wine sales at this estate founded in 1926. A proponent of traditional semi-carbonic vinification, the Ruet estate adapts to the profile of each vintage, partially destemming depending on the year, aging in oak or in tanks, punching down and racking to bring out the maximum fruitiness. The meticulous work in the vineyards highlights the harmony between the soil and the Gamay grape. The extensive and highly consistent range can be explored in a well-stocked tasting room.
