Guy Breton, affectionately known as Petit Max, inherited the family domaine in 1986, succeeding his grandfather. Inspired by the traditionalist Jules Chauvet, Breton, along with vignerons Marcel Lapierre, Jean-Paul Thévenet, and Jean Foillard, formed the Gang of Four—a movement championing back-to-nature winemaking. Under the Gang's influence, Morgon, Breton's wine, embraces its natural expression—unadorned, untouched by cosmetic alterations. This approach results in a Morgon that's rustic, spicy, rich in schist minerals, and simultaneously refreshing and profoundly delightful. Guy Breton Régnié, a red wine from Beaujolais, embodies the same principles, showcasing exceptional vineyard features with well-drained soils and optimal sun exposure.
