One would be hard-pressed to find anyone as devoted to the concepts of ‘sustainable’ and ‘local’ as Thierry and Céline Tissot. Mataret is a very special vineyard overlooking the idyllic French sub-Alpine village of Vaux-en-Bugey. Mataret has never seen any herbicides or pesticides, having been abandoned to the forest before the introduction of chemical treatments. It has always been farmed organically by Céline and Thierry Tissot, certified since 2019. After a manual harvest, the wine is fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel at 15ºC, then at 20ºC to finish off all the sugars. Aged on fine lees for six months and then extensively in bottle before release.
