Our prestige wine, in homage to Zaccharie Geoffray, comes from a selection of our best terroirs and is matured for 11 months in barrels.

“Zaccharie Geoffray was a wine-grower who, along with his wife Marguerite Bernard, purchased Château Thivin and its surrounding vineyards in 1877, establishing the Geoffray family’s legacy in the Côte de Brouilly region of Beaujolais.”

The wine is a blend sourced from the estate’s oldest vines, specifically from plots located at La Chapelle in the south and Godefroy in the east.
