A Family Heritage Spanning Eight Generations

Located in Mérignat, in the heart of Bugey, Estate Renardat-Fache embodies the excellence of Cerdon, a rare and authentic sparkling wine. For eight generations, the family has cultivated this terroir with passion and precision, passing down expertise from father to son. Since 2008, the estate has embraced organic farming and obtained biodynamic certification in 2022, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable and respectful viticulture.

A Unique Terroir Between Mountains and Jura Influences

The vineyards of Estate Renardat-Fache cover 12.5 hectares of clay-limestone slopes between Lyon and Geneva. Nestled on the foothills of the Jura massif, these lands benefit from a cool climate and significant temperature variations, allowing for slow grape ripening. This distinctive environment gives Cerdon its freshness and unique aromatic profile, where vibrant fruit notes shine.

An Ancestral Method Sparkling Wine

Estate Renardat-Fache excels in the ancestral method, a traditional winemaking technique used to create naturally sparkling wines. After an initial fermentation in tanks, the wine is bottled before fermentation is complete, allowing it to develop delicate, natural effervescence. This expertise results in fine bubbles, a low alcohol content (8.5% ABV), and an explosion of fruity flavors.

Iconic Cuvées with Lush Aromatics

The estate’s wines are crafted from a harmonious blend of 70% Gamay and 30% Poulsard, two emblematic grape varieties of Bugey. The "Initiale" cuvée stands out with its deep pink hue and aromas of strawberry, raspberry, and redcurrant. "Demi-Sec" offers subtle sweetness, making it an excellent pairing for red fruit desserts or praline tarts. Each cuvée reflects a living terroir and precise winemaking, showcasing the purest fruit expression.

Estate Renardat-Fache, a Benchmark in Bugey Wines

With its dedication to responsible viticulture and mastery of a unique savoir-faire, Estate Renardat-Fache has become one of Bugey’s most respected names. Its sparkling wines, cherished by wine lovers and sommeliers, offer a festive, light, and refined experience. Tasting a Cerdon from Estate Renardat-Fache is an invitation to enjoy a wine infused with authenticity and tradition.
