List of products by brand Château Thivin

The definitive reference for the Côte de Brouilly appellation, Château Thivin is the oldest estate on Mount Brouilly. Owned by the Geoffray family since 1877, this historic estate cultivates excellence on steep slopes of volcanic "blue stones." By practicing respectful viticulture (Organic certification in progress or achieved depending on the plots) and traditional winemaking, Château Thivin produces wines of remarkable depth and longevity. Far from clichés, its Gamay cuvées stand out for their robust structure and mineral complexity, often reminiscent of Burgundy's finest crus.

The Soul of Mount Brouilly

Château Thivin is much more than a winery; it is a landmark of the Beaujolais region. Built on an extinct volcano, it derives its uniqueness from a world-exclusive terroir: the green rock of Brouilly (or blue stone).

Ancestral and Visionary Craftsmanship:

  • The Terroir: Steep terraced plots where the Gamay grape draws intense minerality from volcanic rock.

  • Sustainable Viticulture: The estate is committed to total respect for biodiversity, with plowed soils and controlled grass cover.

  • Classic Vinification: Traditional Beaujolais winemaking (whole clusters) is practiced here, but with long macerations and aging in old oak foudres. This process refines the tannins while preserving fruit freshness.

Château Thivin wines are famous for their ability to defy time, developing noble notes of peony, spices, and forest floor after a few years of aging.
