vergisson has been famous for centuries for worship and sacrifice, sometimes human, from the cliffs overlooking the vineyards, which were renowned then as they are today for their excellent quality and potential. thierry guérin has worked in these vineyards for many years, learning his skills from his father. he has 8 ha of vineyards in two appellations around the village of vergisson in the mâconnais, situated on the massive limestone outcrop of roche de solutré, at about 300m above sea level, facing south. it is planted with chardonnay vines between 30 and 50 years old, which produce impressively high quality fruit. thierry's winery is very traditional with the wine being aged in premium french oak barrels, complementing the base wine, making it more rounded and giving it a more complex aroma.
