Formerly a physics teacher, Robin Goutallier and his family made a move to the countryside from the city in search of a slower pace of life. Robin purchased a house in Quincié-en-Beaujolais which had a small, very old vineyard attached where he began to tend to the vines organically. He soon after met vignerons Hervé Ravera and Romain des Grottes who mentored him in his first few years vinifying his own wine. He only farms 1 hectare of Gamay across two different parcels along with 30 bee hives so production of both his wine and honey are extremely small (we are looking forward to eating his honey in France sometime soon). All of Robin’s wines are made wines from grapes that he farms and without any inputs and as he jokes, “except grapes”.
