Michel Guignier lives near the village of Vauxrenard in Beaujolais where he crafts exceptional biodynamic wines with the Gamay grape.
Beaujolais
The Beaujolais wine region sits below the main Burgundy region and above the city of Lyon. Here Gamay is king but Chardonnay can also be found. Winemakers who grow Chardonnay in this region can opt to name them either Bourgogne Blanc or Beaujolais Blanc as it is technically part of the greater Burgundy appellation.
