Description

About the Producer

The Domaine Charles Joguet vineyard has distant and somewhat curious origins. As was the case for many houses, the invasion of phylloxera and mechanisation led the Beaudoin-Joguet-Malécault family to practice mixed farming. However, the vineyard part of their property in Sazilly, entirely planted with Cabernet Franc, dates back to 1830 and perhaps longer. As for the Clos de la Dioterie, it was under vine one or two centuries before 1789.
