Since 1865, the spirit of Mommessin has consisted of a Beaujolais soul and a Burgundian heart that define a style that is fruity, powerful and very close to its roots.

The Mommessin spirit stands out for the alliance of two winegrowing regions - Burgundy and the Beaujolais, two cultures that make our wines distinctive and appealing.

Origins

Beaujolais A.O.C wines are mainly produced in the south of Villefranche-sur-Saône. The vineyard spreads over 9 700 hectares.

Terroir

Our vinicultarist, Florent Georger specially selects quality grapes from vines from specific terroir of calcareous clay and granitic schist soils to create this Supérieur level Beaujolais.

The grapes come primarily from the villages of Theizé – Saint-Julien – Saint-Étienne-des-Oullières.

Vinification and maturing

Hand-harvested. The vinification combines the traditional Beaujolais semi-carbonic method with thermovinification, with 6 to 8 days of maceration to ensure good extraction, and temperatures maintained at 22–25°C in order to protect and preserve the full fruit expression of the Gamay grape variety. Aged in tank.
