We set up Bret Brothers in early August 2001 with the aim of producing very fine terroir wines, mainly from the Mâcon wine-producing region in Southern Burgundy.

This undoubtedly ambitious objective demands a set of strict specifications, which are very important to us, namely:

• selecting small plots of old vines being worked by enthusiastic wine-growers, on very specific terroir ;
• buying-in only standing grapes (100% of all grapes bought are certified Organic or in conversion) ;
• hand-picking of ripe grapes by our own team;
• vinification using 100% natural yeasts;
• matured and bottled in-house;

Most part of our Mâcon-Villages is a blend of our barrels of Viré-Clessé « La Verchère », Saint-Véran « En Combe », Pouilly-Fuissé « En Carementrant », etc. that we think are « not right enough » to bear the name « grande cuvée ». but do not be mislead, this is excellent wine far from the beaten tracks of ordinary plonk ! It is ideal with goat cheese frol the Mâconnais !
