Château de la Terrière
A 28-hectare estate in the heart of the Beaujolais crus. Château de la Terrière is one of the oldest estates in the region, and has stood facing Mont Brouilly in Cercié since the 14th century. 
The 9th generation of a family of winegrowers, Grégory Barbet took over the château in 2003. He also owns Domaine de la Pirolette with his wife Virginie. 
Frédéric Maignet is Château de la Terrière's wine mister. He is also consultant oenologist for a number of Beaujolais estates.


The 28-hectare vineyard, planted with Gamay and PInot noir, is made up of : 
  • 12 hectares in a single block in the Cru Brouilly PDO
  • 5 hectares of AOP Cru Régnié in the Sibérie area
  • 2 hectares in Cru Fleurie PDO 
  • 3 hectares in Cru Moulin-à-Vent PDO 
  • 6 hectares in AOP Bourgogne Pinot noir

The Château's vines are 50 years old on average, and stretch due south to mid-slope, on a hillside of deep, weathered pink granite for the Brouilly and Régnié, on granitic soils rich in iron oxide and manganese for the Moulin-à-Vent, and on sandy, well-draining soils for the Fleurie. 

 In 2010, the estate became a forerunner by planting the Pinot Noir grape variety in Cogny, in the Pierres Dorées region.

"THE bargain to buy by the case!"

"Beautiful sweet blackcurrant, strawberry and savory character. Smooth texture with hints of dark chocolate. Supple tannins supported by lingering violet notes on the finish." (Decanter 2023) Not for everyone!
