A family-run business for 4 generations, Caveau Quinard, whose vines are located on the high banks of the Rhône Valley in Massignieu-de-Rives, close to the ViaRhôna, has been organically farmed since 2010.
The Quinard estate comprises 12.5 hectares of vines.
The vineyards are farmed organically.
The Quinard estate is also committed to providing a warm welcome: a smile is the order of the day, tastings of the estate's wines are offered, and numerous tourist brochures (in French and Dutch) are available for customers.
Julien Quinard made the commitment to organic farming in 2009, the year in which he converted the entire vineyard to organic methods.
No synthetic products (herbicides, insecticides) or chemical fertilisers are used. The vines are treated only with minerals and plants in order to produce the healthiest grapes possible.
The vinification process is traditional, with no yeast added.
This means more manual work (ploughing one traille out of 2, leaving the other as grass), which makes it easier for the equipment to pass through.
Domaine wines :
Bugey red (Gamay, Pinot noir, Mondeuse)
White Bugey (Chardonnay, Roussette)
Bugey brut (traditional method), white and rosé
Perle de Rose (sparkling rosé using the traditional method)
