The Domaine de la Madone is located on the renowned hillside of la Madone in Fleurie. This hillside is often considered by connoisseurs to have the best growing conditions for wine in the area. It is blessed with exceptional amounts of sunshine, and the soil is composed of pink granite, highly suited to growing the Gamay grape variety. The domaine has been cultivated by the Despres family for five generations and covers an area of 13 hectares. The family nature of the business was reinforced recently when son Arnaud took over the cultivation of his great grandfather’s grapevines of the Domaine Du Niagara.
