Winery:
Living in the village of La Roche-Vineuse at the foot of Maconnais, Olivier Merlin is widely regarded as being one of the very finest wine makers in the region. He and his wife Corinne began in 1987, creating non-manipulated wines with low yields in the Maconnais. Both of them are skilled wine-makers who have always believed in the potential of their Maconnais terroirs. Their wines are the proof that Macon can be serious, long-lived, and delicious.
