DOMAINE TRICHON
(Winery in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes)
Provides 1 wine tasting and winery visit from €7.50
Claire and Stéphane Trichon proudly carry forward the legacy of their family estate, which has been passed down for three generations. Located in the picturesque Bas-Bugey region, on the banks of the Rhône in the Ain département, the estate spans over 13 hectares of organically cultivated vines. Since converting to organic farming in 2008, Domaine Trichon has embraced a philosophy of sustainable viticulture, ensuring that the land and the wine it produces are nurtured with respect for nature.
Our commitment to organic farming means that only natural products are used to protect our vines. We rely on small doses of copper, sulphur, and plant-based remedies like borage, comfrey, and nettle, all of which bring numerous benefits to our vineyards. The planetary influence is also carefully considered when it comes to vine work and winemaking decisions, making our approach both holistic and mindful.
At Domaine Trichon, we believe that great wine begins in the vineyard. By combining our love of plants, generations of expertise, and a deep respect for the environment, we produce wines that truly reflect the terroir of the Bugey region. Located at the foot of the Bugey mountains, our estate offers a peaceful, scenic escape, yet remains close to major cities such as Grenoble, Lyon, Chambéry, and Bourg-en-Bresse.
Domaine Cédric Vincent
(Winery in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes)
Provides 1 wine tasting and winery visit from €15.00
Cédric Vincent grew up in Lyon. Though raised in the city, he always felt deeply connected to the land, spending much of his free time in Pouilly-le-Monial, in the Beaujolais region, where he helped his grandfather work the vines.
Inspired by this emblematic figure and driven by a strong emotional bond to his family’s heritage, he planted his first vine of Beaujolais Blanc at just four years old—an experience that would shape his future. After a youth immersed in sports and a decade advising winemakers in Beaune, Cédric decided in 2010 to fully commit to his own winemaking vision. That same year, he founded Domaine Cédric Vincent, exactly one hundred years after his ancestors acquired the land.
Dedicated solely to Beaujolais vineyards, the estate now spans twelve hectares, from the golden limestone hills of the Pierres Dorées in the south to the prestigious Moulin-à-Vent in the north. Recognized for his talent and innovation, he was named “Young Talent” in 2010 and 2014 during the Hospices de Beaune wine auctions, and in 2015, he was inducted as a Friend of the Disciples of Escoffier thanks to the sponsorship of Michelin-starred chef Edouard Loubet. Two years later, he joined the Collège Culinaire de France – Producers and Artisans of Quality, recommended by Gérard Margeon, head sommelier for the Ducasse Group.
Today, as the winemaker behind Domaine Cédric Vincent, he stands as a proud ambassador of his terroir — ambitious, environmentally conscious, and committed to sharing his unique vision of Beaujolais wines with the world.
Château des Ravatys
(Winery in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes)
Provides 4 wine tastings and winery visit from €127.00
Château des Ravatys is a historic wine estate, acquired in the mid-19th century by Auguste Solet, an engineering student from Lorraine. Nestled within 29 hectares of vineyards in the AOC Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly appellations, the estate is home to remarkable architectural buildings, enhancing its charm and heritage.
The vineyards of Château des Ravatys thrive on soils that impart distinct elegance and finesse to the wines. The Côte de Brouilly appellation benefits from acidic soil, lending a unique structure to its wines, while Brouilly wines owe their fruit-forward charm and supple texture to granite sand. The estate focuses exclusively on Gamay with white juice, with vines flourishing on the hillsides of Mount Brouilly, producing approximately 50 hectoliters per hectare.
The estate’s vine-growing families, who partially rent land to Château des Ravatys, play a crucial role in the winemaking process. A dedicated oenologist oversees quality control, ensuring that each vintage reflects the exceptional character of the terroir. Visitors can immerse themselves in guided tours, vineyard walks, and wine tastings, discovering the estate’s legacy firsthand.
Beyond winemaking, Château des Ravatys contributes to a greater cause, as a portion of its earnings from estate activities is donated to the Institut Pasteur, supporting research in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases.

Living by the rhythm of the vines, we have always worked to preserve the environment in which we operate, respecting the vines, the soil and the rhythm of the seasons.
With a solid background in oenology, Guillaume Archambault took over the reins of the family domaine, created by his great-grandparents, in 2012. "My great-grandfather owned 15 hectares of vines in the commune of Bourg-Saint-Andéol, and my grandmother had a vineyard here in Saint-Martin d'Ardèche," explains Guillaume. From their union was born Domaine de la Croix Blanche, named after his great-grandfather's farm. As for her, Laurene grew up at the very heart of the estate, immersed from childhood in the intoxicating atmosphere of winegrowing. In 2019, she joins her brother to contribute to the development and renown of the estate, in particular by taking care of wine sales and marketing. Both will offer you a warm welcome, sharing anecdotes about the estate's history and winemaking techniques, so that you can discover the emblematic cuvées and the diversity of the estate's wines!
