Returning in 2012 to run the family Domaine, Thibault Charnay was making wine for regional négociants but after some encouragement from his brother-in-law Raphael of Domaine Saint-Cyr, he's now making wine under his own label. His 12 hectares of Gamay vineyards are located around the village of Anse on golden limestone soils. All vineyards were converted to organic in 2019.

"Pale brilliant ruby. A hugely refreshing, light-bodied and cheerful Beaujolais that maintains a divine purity of red berry fruit. Soft, silky tannins, mouth-watering acidity, and the perfect amount of red cherry, cranberry and redcurrant concentration until the end. Situated in southern Beaujolais, the domaine dates back to the 1500s and manages its 100ha organically. All hand harvested, vinified without SO2, wines are not chaptalised or filtered, and indigenous yeast is used." Victoria Daskal, decanter.com, 92 pts

"Dark, vivid ruby colour. Ripe and lively aromas, packed with dark berry fruit laced with nutmeg and cloves. A full-bodied cru Beaujolais with powerful, thick tannins and concentrated fruit intensity. From low-yielding, 70-year-old vines, farmed biodynamically. Fermented with natural yeasts without the addition of any sulphur dioxide. Wines are aged six to eight months in used oak barrels from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. Bottled without filtration."
