Château de la Terrière
AOP Bourgogne Pinot Noir
The 6 hectares of vines located in the Pierres Dorées region in the south of Burgundy, in clay and limestone soil. A very delicate nose with aromas of cherry, strawberry and blackberry.
AOP Brouilly
Foothill soils derived from the metamorphic rock of Mont Brouilly, formed 400 million years ago and locally known as Pierre Bleue. These soils are rich in magnesium, well-structured, and highly
resilient. The nose is marked by intensity, power, and complexity, with notes of violet and ripe fruits.
AOP Beaujolais-Villages
The vines form part of the Régnié Cru in lieu-dit of "La Tour Bourdon". The nose is very aromatic, with strawberry and cherry notes.
AOP Brouilly
This wine, from the "cru" Brouilly, comes from vines planted mid-slope, facing south, on a pink decomposed granite soil, mixed with sand and pebbles, and clay in the deeper layer. The nose is very aromatic, with strawberry and raspberry summer fruit aromas.
AOP Régnié
The vines benefit from a south-facing terroir, located mid-slope, resting on a geological formation composed of clay mixed with large sandstone blocks. The nose reveals a beautiful aromatic complexity dominated by notes of cherry and licorice.
