Michel Guignier

In 1989 I set up in Villié-Morgon, having bought 3 hectares of vines in the MORGON appellation area. Today I tend 11 hectares of vineyards in several appellations. Very quickly, it became apparent that I had to till the soil and mature my wines in oak barrels. With patience and passion, I started to manage the ploughing and eliminate synthetic plant protection products, obtaining the ‘Agriculture Biologique’ (Organic Farming) label in 2006. What drove me from the start was a deep-rooted need to forge a link soil, the heavens and the winemaker. In so doing, I became an alchemist whose conscience dictates the fusion of all these aspects of life!
