Estate

Domaine Fagolet is an 18 hectare vineyard located in the town of Vaux in Beaujolais. The Girard family continues the tradition with Paul and Valerie Girard (since 1980) and recently, their son Nicolas. The know-how transmits and evolves within their family vineyard, in order to make wines of quality and character. For years, they have made it a point of honor to pamper their vines. All their attention has focused on the valorization of their terroir and our grape varieties. It is thanks to the meticulous work done on their vines and so special soils that they can produce beautiful grapes. Harvesting is by hand in respect of the environment. Sorting the grapes is done in the vineyard before transporting them to the vat. Thanks to the construction of a new winery fully equipped for winemaking (in 1986), Domaine Fagolet has developed significantly. The parcels that make up the Domaine are mostly planted on the hillsides (30% slope to the highest), which gives the wines unique organoleptic properties.
