Thibault Ducroux

Thibault's passion for winemaking ignited in his father's Beaujolais cellar as a young boy. His pursuit of natural wine was kindled by the pioneering work of Jules Chauvet, the "father of natural winemaking." Inspired, Thibault studied viticulture and oenology, then deepened his knowledge alongside Beaujolais trailblazers. He honed his craft at Julien Sunier's estate, embracing organic viticulture and natural winemaking. In 2019, he introduced his first wine, "En Roue Libre" - a tribute to his love for cycling and hands-off winemaking. Thibault's journey continues as he tends to old Gamay vines, crafting wines that reflect terroir and purity. His dedication and youthful enthusiasm promise a bright future for this emerging natural winemaker in the heart of Beaujolais.

The Region

Beaujolais, France

Beaujolais, renowned for its distinctive natural wine profile, embodies the essence of the region's terroir with its vibrant and expressive character. Crafted primarily from the Gamay grape, Beaujolais natural wines are celebrated for their purity, freshness, and lively acidity. These wines often exhibit charming aromas of red berries, particularly strawberries and cherries, accompanied by floral notes and subtle earthy undertones. On the palate, Beaujolais natural wines delight with their juicy fruitiness, offering flavors of ripe raspberries and cranberries, supported by soft tannins and a refreshing minerality. With minimal intervention in the winemaking process, these wines showcase the true essence of the grape and the unique terroir of the Beaujolais region, making them a delightful choice for wine enthusiasts seeking authentic and approachable expressions of natural winemaking.
