Review Robert Perroud represents the seventh generation ofhis family to farm this twelve-hectare domain, which dates back to 1789 and the French Revolution. The vines average close to 50 years of age with some of them over 80 years of age. The wines are made traditionally, via carbonic maceration. Aging takes place in mostly large neutral oak casks, old foudres, with some barriques thrown in for good measure. Old vines in Brouilly and Cote de Brouilly comprise the heart of the estate while there are tiny holdings of Chardonnay in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation as well as a smattering of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir plantings for Bourgogne bottlings.

Wine maker notes The steep slopes of Balloquets are planted with wild flowers, and characterized with amethyst crystal in the underground, incrusted in the red granite rocks with quartz, from which Pollen is the result. A refined pleasure…

Producer The human experience is what motivates and drives me to collaborate with others sharing a mutual passion. My creation of Terroirs Originels 15 years ago has allowed me to fully invest myself in the pursuit of excellence from the vine to the glass. What inspires me more than anything is nature I like to feel at one with it. My home is a bioclimatic house surrounded by vineyards and I still use the same cellar as my father and grandfather. I take time to observe and protect the environment by developing biodiversity within my vineyards. In my operation I work with the help of my assistant Frederic in the vines and the cellar, our work demands so much detail and we both consider making wine an art. Everything is tailored to the needs of our vines and much effort is put forth by hand in the vineyard, because no great wine can be made without exceptional grapes! Which at my estate are handpicked, when fully ripened, by a happy and loyal band of harvesters and transported in small cases of only 50 kg. My winery is located just meters from my plots. Here in my operation it is about as local and sustainable as it gets!
