The Story
Founded in 1929, the Cave des Grands Crus Blancs began as a union of winegrowers from two neighboring villages: Vinzelles and Loché. By pooling their talents and know-how, these winegrowers were able to produce prestigious Burgundy and Beaujolais cuvées. It's only natural that this union should now include many other renowned winemakers from neighbouring villages. For more than 90 years, the Cave des Grands Crus Blancs has been producing quality wines thanks to a commitment to enhancing the terroir, combining tradition and modernity. The cooperative groups 82 member on 112 hectares, and 90% of the production is white wines.
