Son of Jean-Paul Thévenet, Charly became an accomplished winemaker when he established his own estate in Régnié in 2007. Following in his family's footsteps, he creates exemplary vintages for our greatest pleasure, offering here a satiny Régnié with an elegant and refined profile. His biodynamic work, respectful of the terroir, takes on its full meaning in this king of Régniés, which touches us with its intense and pure fruitiness. A vintage of choice, far from the norm, to surprise and delight at the table.

About the estate:

This is the estate of Jean-Paul Thévenet's son, Charly, who bought vineyards in Régnié a few years ago and released his first vintage in 2007. Biodynamic cultivation, late harvesting, gentle maceration, and low sulfur dioxide content during aging in old barrels are the order of the day. The style is elegant and delicate, emphasizing charm and aromatic complexity over brute force, and the wines tend to age gracefully.
