At the Domaine Henri Cruchon, work is a family affair and both the grapes and the environment are treated with respect.
Henri Cruchon and his sons held the conviction that it was important to grow high-quality grapes in a healthy, natural environment so in 2000, they switched over to the biodynamic method. Nowadays, about 30 of the 42 hectares of vines are cultivated according to this demanding method, which excludes all chemical products and protects the ecosystems.
Of the 34 wines made from 16 different grape varieties, many are regularly extolled by the media or at professional competitions. Notable examples: the Pinot Blanc, the Chasselas Les Peytolères, the Noblesse de Chardonnay and, first and foremost, the Pinot Noir Le Raissenaz Grand Cru.
To taste these vintages, the Cruchon family admits visitors to its huge and welcoming cellar, from Monday to Saturday or by appointment for workshops or group introductions to wine-tasting.
