Domaine Lafoy

 The 9-hectare estate created in 1993 by Jocelyne & Yves Lafoy is located in the village of Ampuis, in the heart of the Côte Rôtie vineyards. The Lafoy family has been in the wine business for three generations. Since the end of 2011, Gaëtan, Yves and Jocelyne's eldest son, has joined his parents on the estate after various travels and professional experiences. His first vintage, 2012, combines the father's experience and the son's youth, and is proving to be a great success. Climats, terroirs and appellations are just some of the differences that make this prestigious region so unique. The vines are planted in narrow terraces, built on steep hillsides with vertiginous slopes. These very typical growing conditions enable us to produce great wines in a climate known as the Lyonnais, which perfectly combines the heat and sunshine of the Mediterranean climate with the coolness and humidity provided throughout the year by the continental influences of the Burgundy lands further north. Together, they cultivate 9 ha of vines in Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Saint-Joseph and IGP Collines Rhodaniennes.
