It all started with the grandfather Robert Charvet. With his horse, Kiki, the farm was on 4 hectares close to the Lyon region...

Nice discovery
3 very different and complementary areas:
- technical expertise at Château des Bachelards
- passion at Steeve Charvet
- organization at Domaine de la Madone
Winemakers available and willing to listen, all eager to share their expertise.
A very interesting day for anyone wanting to improve their knowledge of Beaujolais vineyards.

Wonderful weekend
A very beautiful day in the different domains. A repeat visit without hesitation and an exceptional day in the Beaujolais. Perfect meeting with very good winemakers and very good explanations and tastings.
Many thanks again

Une bien belle journée
Au Domaine de la Madone, première étape fort instructive, la dégustation s'est faite dans des conditions optimales. Bien accueillis et bien guidés, nous aurions peut-être aimé avoir quelqu'un plus proche du travail de la vigne et de l'élaboration des vins. Très bien accueillis au restaurant et menu irréprochable avec une vue panoramique superbe sur le vignoble. À noter que la chapelle de la Madone, toute proche, peut se faire à pied depuis le restaurant en une dizaine de minutes... indispensable.
Le château des Bachelards a été le moment le plus fort de la journée avec ses vins AB et Demeter, un peu chers pour notre budget, hélas. La visite commentée sur le terrain et dans les chais a été la plus passionnante et la plus instructive de la journée.
Chez Steeve Charvet, bien accueillis par Orane, nous avons beaucoup appris, notamment sur la manière de déguster ces excellents crus mais nous avons été un peu déçus par le lot de trois bouteilles offert, bouteilles de bas de gamme et un mâchon un peu plus étoffé aurait été davantage conforme à nos espérances.
Cette découverte du vignoble du Beaujolais restera un beau souvenir : un superbe cadeau !
