Established in 1931 by Franck's grandfather, the Balthazar family estate commenced bottling wines under their own label in 1980. The vineyard parcels undergo separate fermentation, incorporating stems, and the aging process takes place in demi-muids. The 'Cuvée Casimir' is a tribute to Franck's grandfather and undergoes fermentation with 100% whole bunches and native yeasts. The aromatic profile reveals red fruits on the nose, transitioning to a robust palate featuring cherries, red fruits, damp earth, and smoky notes. This culminates in a crisp and satisfying finish that fills the mouth with flavor.

Aurélien Chatagnier, a rising star in the Northern Rhône, founded his domaine in 2002 at a young age. Inspired by early vineyard work at Domaine Jamet and mentored by François Villard, he now oversees nearly 10 hectares, mainly on steep granite soils, practicing organic farming since 2019. His ecological commitment extends to building stone walls to prevent erosion. In his 17th-century farmhouse cellar, he employs native yeast for vinification. The reds, destemmed and fermented in fiberglass tanks, age in used barrels, while whites ferment in barrels. Aurelien's lean, pure winemaking style showcases why he's considered one of the region's best young talents.
