The Les Mouilles vineyard is located in the northeast part of Juliénas near the border of Saint-Amour. Vines are planted facing south in soils that are dominated by volcanic schist with a proportion of heavy clay in the subsoil. Vines are trained in the traditional gobelet system of Beaujolais and harvested by hand. This vineyard gives a spicier expression of gamay with a hint of white pepper.

2018 Vintage: After two consecutive vintages with poor yields due to frost and hail, 2018 was a breath of fresh air. A cool spring delay bud break sufficiently, followed by a growing season with immense sunshine and enough rainfall to keep soil moisture levels optimal for gradual ripening. Ideal growing conditions throughout the season and ample water meant yields were generous and quality high. Wines display a buoyancy of juicy fruit, balancing freshness and good concentration. A very similar vintage to 2017 in terms of style with a touch more elegance.

2017 Vintage: A vintage that saw just about everything Mother Nature could throw at it. A warm spring forced an early bud break, which left grapes vulnerable to the spring frost that hit in May. The spring frost was followed by violent hailstorms at the beginning of summer coupled with drought conditions throughout the growing season. Just before harvest, rainfall came and brought with it welcome freshness and provided vines some balance to finish ripening optimally without excessive stress. Due to frost coupled by drought conditions, crop load was low and berry size was small, resulting in low yields but very good concentration. The wines are balanced with sufficient structure and freshness for medium term aging.

2016 Vintage: A challenging vintage  in many respects, but as the saying goes: what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! Cool spring temperatures led to a later-than-average bud break, which proved to be a blessing in disguise as a major hailstorm swept through the region in late May decimating about 2000 hectares. Had bud break happened on schedule, the result of this metrological event could've been much worse. A moderate, dry summer, with cool nights, continued through September offering the estate ideal conditions for harvest. The 2016 vintage can be compared most recently to 2014 in terms of freshness, elegance and structure, with riper fruit character (but not as ripe as 2015) to provide a bit of voluptuousness on the palate.
