ESTATE HISTORY
The Aegerters, a father and son team, are creators and developers. They did not inherit an estate; they built it together, each contributing his own knowledge and aspirations.
United by the same passion for nature in general and vines in particular, Jean-Luc the pioneer and Paul the visionary freely chose this profession.
They began a shared story, developed their knowledge and allowed their ideas to mature. Paul, now the sole head of the family company, is continuing this family adventure and starting a new chapter: one about a flourishing business.
TERROIR
This Village appellation of the Mâconnais vineyard produces exclusively white wines from the Chardonnay grape variety. The Pouilly-Fuissé appellation can be produced in 4 communes.
VITICULTURE
Sustainable farming. HVE certification.

WINEMAKING
Once the grapes are harvested by hand, they are pressed then placed in demi-muids to be vinified. The aging is done in demi-muids of two wines for a period of 6 to 12 months with regular stirring to put the lees back in suspension.
