Domaine Laura Lardy

Daughter and sister of winemakers in Fleurie, I made my first vintage in 2017; I am the 4th generation in the family to make wine in Beaujolais.

I currently work on family vineyards, so the vines have an average age of 60 years. My priority is to respect each terroir I work (Fleurie, Moulin à Vent, Chénas, and Morgon Côte du Py). Vineyard work is simple: plowing, traditional manual tasks, and treatments with sulfur and copper. Vinification is carried out as follows: carbonic maceration of whole bunches for about 10 days in concrete tanks. There is no use of commercial yeast or starter, only indigenous yeast. Then I perform a slow pressing and transfer the wine to barrels (most often 228L or large casks) depending on the cuvée. Aging can then last from 4 to 10 months. At racking, I very lightly protect my wines with the addition of sulfur.
