The estate and the wine
Wine The 2023 Red Vin de France Madelon from Anne and Jean-François Ganevat blends Gamay from the Fleurie area in Beaujolais with local Jura varieties. Made the old-school way using semi-carbonic maceration in wooden vats, it bursts with expressive, juicy fruit flavours—light, lively, and full of easy-drinking charm.
Vinification Hand harvested. Traditional semi-carbonic maceration at 12/14°C in truncated cone-shaped vats. Indigenous yeasts, no added sulphur.
