The Story
The vineyards are located next door to the famous Rayas property. Until 1998 the production was delivered to the co-operative, but the young generation Caroline and brother Frédéric Charrier started bottling at the domain after a new cellar was built. Caroline has attended the wine school in Beaune and is responsible for the winemaking and is gaining attention with amazing wines produced and international accolades.
