Domaine Paul Janin et Fils
Domaine Paul Janin et Fils was founded by Paul Janin, a discreet winegrower who began exporting his production in the 1970s, and began working on the French market in 1975. Today, the Domaine Paul Janin et Fils vineyard covers 10 hectares in 2 appellations. In Beaujolais-Villages, "Domaine des Vignes des Jumeaux" comes from 2 hectares of hillside vines planted on clay-granitic terroir. In Moulin-à-Vent, "Clos du Tremblay", "Domaine des Vignes du Tremblay" and the "Séduction" cuvée are made from a combined 8 hectares of vineyard parcels within the appellation perimeter. South-facing slopes predominate. The soils are predominantly sandstone, with alternating sand and/or variegated red clay on the surface.

Domaine Paul Janin et Fils strives to cultivate its vines as healthily as possible and was certified HVE 3 in 2018. The soils are ploughed deep and regularly. Green harvesting is carried out only when necessary, with pruning and disbudding preferred to regulate and control yields. Hand-picked, the bunches are sorted one by one. Two sorting tables are in constant operation during the harvest. Pressing is as gentle as possible, to retain only the finest, noblest tannins. The wines are aged for 8 to 10 months, depending on the cuvée. While the methods used by Domaine Paul Janin et Fils remain classic, they nonetheless ensure that the quality of the wines offered remains constant.

"The creaminess and identity of the terroir".

"The nose of ripe red fruit is open and immediately appealing, but behind the first wave of fruit lies an excellent depth of fine tannins. Both aspects of the wine are very well balanced. The length is also good." (James Suckling 2024)

enveloping

"The 2018 Chénas Les Blémonts is bursting with mouthwatering aromas of rose petals, raspberries, cherries and spice. Medium- to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with succulent acids and youthful, chewy tannins, this is a classic with character that will reward a year or two of bottle age." (Wine Advocate 2020) Eric Janin is successfully expanding his range, as demonstrated by this rich, gourmet Chénas.

"Made from old vines grown on granite, héritage-du-tremblay develops a very fine, floral bouquet with notes of fresh berries. Surprisingly fresh on the attack, very velvety. Long, chiseled finish, with a solid, well-coated tannic structure. A very pretty wine". (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins 2018)
