Tasting Notes
Marcel Joubert is a fourth-generation winemaker, currently the most senior natural winemaker in Brouilly. The 10-hectare vineyard spreads across AOC Beaujolais, Beaujolais Villages, Brouilly, Fleurie, Chiroubles & Morgon. His grandfather, Petrus, founded the appellation of Brouilly.

He’s been producing natural wines in several appellations since meeting Marcel Lapierre at a motorcycle rally in the late 1980's
