Information about domain André et Michel Quenard

At the foot of the famous "Towers of Chignin”, the Domain Quenard has been owned by the same family since the 17th century. Having studied enology and worked as an intern both in Bordeaux and California, Jean-François came back to the family domain in 1987 to work alongside his father. Today, he expertly manages the 18-hectare domain, with vines planted on clay-limestone slopes with perfect exposure. In the vineyard as in the winery, he finds inspiration from traditional methods, combining them harmoniously with innovative techniques. Much-loved by professional critics, these wines are sought after for their great complexity.
