Domaine Grégoire Hoppenot

Grégoire Hoppenot is one of our recent favorites in Beaujolais! A quick success (discovery of the year 2021 at the RVF) that is far from being a coincidence, Grégoire Hoppenot having proven himself with big names as an oenologist (Chermette, Chapoutier...). If William Kelley (Robert Parker) describes him as one of the most interesting winemakers of the new scene in Beaujolais, it is because his wines already demonstrate a great mastery of style.

Grégoire Hoppenot now operates 9ha of vines, mainly the best wines of the village of Fleurie. Grégoire practices organic viticulture and limits the use of sulfur to a minimum while having the talent to produce stable wines, with flawless aromatic precision. The grapes are vinified in whole harvests, in accordance with the traditions of Beaujolais. The wines display a velvety and silky texture, with a natural charm. A real wind of freedom in Beaujolais!
