The Gauthier family have been making wine in Morgon since 1834 and have passed down for generations into Laurent Gauthiers hands, who now runs their small artisan estate with his sons Jason and Elie. They hold 11ha in total, mostly in the Grands Crase on the south of Morgon on 9ha vineyard on Schist, with a small plot in Cote du Py of 2ha on the famous blue granite soils. They have committed their land for sustainable farming to preserve the soil for future generations of winemakers, limiting use of all chemicals to encourage biodiversity in the vines and they are certified organic. Laurent and his sons work with a very minimal intervention approach, both in the vineyards and in the winery, producing authentic and quality natural wines.
