Domaine de La Madone is located on the renowned Madone hillside in Fleurie, Beaujolais. This hillside is often considered by connoisseurs to be the best of the cru's climates. It benefits from exceptional sunshine, and its pink granite soil is ideal for the Gamay grape. Domaine de La Madone has been owned by the Despres family for 5 generations. Today, Jean Marc and Maryse Despres have the honor of producing the wine and marketing it worldwide.
