Domaine Christophe Pacalet ★ 4.6
Micro-negociant based in Cercié, just outside Villié-Morgon. Christophe Pacalet (nephew of Marcel Lapierre) set up his own winery in 1999 and vinifies purchased grapes from multiple Beaujolais appellations including Beaujolais-Villages, Fleurie, Saint-Amour and Moulin-a-Vent, using the Chauvet method (whole bunches, carbonic maceration, no additives).
Domaine Pierre Cotton ★ 4.4
Small Brouilly and Cote de Brouilly estate at Odenas, on land farmed by the Cotton family since 1856. Pierre Cotton (joined by partner Marine Bonnet in 2020, with the estate now operating as Bonnet-Cotton) reclaimed 1 hectare of Cote de Brouilly in 2014 for his first cuvee; the domaine farms organically and ferments without added sulphur in concrete tanks before ageing in old foudres.
Domaine de la Voute des Crozes ★ 4.3
Family estate in Cercié on the slopes of Mont Brouilly, operated by Nicole Chanrion since 1988 and dating to 1861. The domaine farms around 7.5 hectares of Gamay on east- and northeast-facing volcanic schist and diorite mid-slopes, with vineyards planted at 10,000-12,000 vines per hectare and whole-cluster carbonic maceration aged in large oak foudres.
