role model
This vineyard is located on the most surface-level granite. These rocks give the wine great, noble power. Its potential is brought out through aging in the finest barrels. A note to lovers of fine wines…

Wine rated 91/100 (2020 vintage)

Rated estate (2024 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Cédric Lecareux and his wife Catherine founded the Capréoles estate in July 2014 with three hectares of adjacent vineyards, to which they added two more hectares two years later. From Beaujolais-Villages to the Régnié cru, everything is highly recommended, with—in our opinion—more refined aging profiles. A wonderful place to visit.

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Cédric Lecareux—who came from Languedoc-Roussillon, where he worked at the Gérard Bertrand Group’s estates—and his wife, a native of the Beaujolais region, purchased this 250-year-old estate in 2014. There, they cultivate 8 hectares of organically farmed vineyards laid out like a garden around the property, offering an exceptional view of the two church steeples in Régnié-Durette.

Wine rated (2023 guide) 90/100 (2020 vintage)

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

Cédric Lecareux is one of those new-generation winemakers who are shaking up the Beaujolais region. After serving as technical director for a major Languedoc wine merchant for six harvests, he settled in Régnié with his wife Catherine—an agricultural engineer like himself—on a neglected vineyard. Upon their arrival in 2014, they began the process of obtaining organic certification, which was granted in 2017. Adhering to the maxim “The rule is that there are no rules,” they adapt their destemming and aging methods to suit each year’s harvest.
