Domaine Rampon, authentic Beaujolais signed by four generations of winegrowers
Domaine Christophe & Daniel Rampon
A family estate of 12.5 hectares in Villié-Morgon, at the heart of the Beaujolais crus, signed by four generations. Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc across six appellations (Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent, Chiroubles, Beaujolais Villages) and Chardonnay. HVE-certified since 2019.
At the heart of the hills of Villié-Morgon, Domaine Christophe & Daniel Rampon cultivates 12.5 hectares of vines with the rigour and passion that only four generations can pass on. Here, Gamay reigns supreme over exceptional terroirs, Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent, Chiroubles, and Chardonnay, planted in 2003, completes a range as wide as it is sincere.
A family history rooted in the Beaujolais
It all begins with Joséphine and Philibert Delorme, who lay the first stones of the estate. Claudia and Lucien Delorme perpetuate the heritage, before Mireille and Daniel Rampon take over the reins in 1981 and give the property its current name. Today, Christophe Rampon, fourth generation, embodies the continuity and evolution of this family estate, where each bottle bears the imprint of a know-how handed down from hand to hand. On these clay-limestone and granitic soils of the northern Beaujolais, the vine is worked in reasoned and artisanal cultivation: goblet pruning, entirely manual harvest and systematic sorting at picking.
A recognised commitment: the HVE certification
This commitment was recognised in October 2019 with the High Environmental Value (HVE) certification, a guarantee of practices respectful of the wine-growing ecosystems. It attests to the respect of strict criteria in terms of biodiversity, phytosanitary strategy, fertilisation and water management. An official recognition of a reasoned and responsible viticulture, beyond mere regulatory requirements.

Exceptional terroirs: Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent & more
The estate expresses itself over six Beaujolais appellations, each drawing a unique facet of Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc. Morgon (3.5 ha) embodies depth: from the Côte du Py and Les Micouds, it stays in barrel six to seven months to develop its structure and its aromas of black cherry and earth. Fleurie stands out for its natural elegance, on plots planted in 1958 and 1965 at the foot of the Madone. Further north, Moulin-à-Vent, worked since 2009 on granitic soils, offers notes of iris, rose and ripe fruits, with a remarkable ageing potential. Chiroubles, the most airy of the crus, completes the palette with its freshness and its aromas of violet; in Beaujolais Villages, the estate produces red, rosé and the Or de Beaujeu cuvee, a white in Chardonnay.
The signature cuvees of Domaine Rampon
From Morgon (Tradition, Cuvée d'Lucien) to Fleurie, from Moulin-à-Vent to Chiroubles, from Beaujolais Villages (red, rosé and the Or de Beaujeu in Chardonnay) to the Brut and Doux sparkling wines, all the richness of the Beaujolais crus, direct from the property.
Morgon: Tradition & Cuvée d'Lucien
AOC Morgon - the depth of the Côte du Py
Morgon (3.5 ha, Côte du Py and Les Micouds) embodies depth: aged 6 to 7 months in barrel, structure and aromas of black cherry and undergrowth, ageing 5 to 8 years. The Tradition cuvee is its most accomplished expression, alongside the Cuvée d'Lucien.
Fleurie
AOC Fleurie - the natural elegance of the Beaujolais
Two plots planted in 1958 and 1965 at the foot of the Madone, facing Mont-Blanc: a Fleurie with melted tannins and floral scents (peony, red fruits), long and silky. The quintessence of Beaujolais finesse, from sexagenarian vines.
Moulin-à-Vent
AOC Moulin-à-Vent - the most Burgundian of the crus
Worked since 2009 on granitic, manganese-rich soils: notes of iris, rose and ripe fruits, remarkable density and complexity. Here Gamay is transformed into a great wine for ageing (6 to 10 years).
Chiroubles
AOC Chiroubles - the most airy of the crus
At the highest altitude of the crus, an airy and fragrant Gamay, all freshness with aromas of violet. A pleasure red to open without waiting, from bottling, served at 14-16 degrees.
Or de Beaujeu & Beaujolais Villages
AOC Beaujolais Villages - red, rosé and white
The Or de Beaujeu cuvee, a white Beaujolais Villages in Chardonnay (planted in 2003), with aromas of pear, citrus and white flowers, fresh and lively; as well as a red and a rosé Beaujolais Villages. The estate's white revelation.
Sparkling Brut & Doux
Beaujolais sparkling - the festive know-how
Sparkling cuvees in Gamay, in Brut and Doux versions, made in the traditional artisanal method: fine bubbles and aromas of crunchy red fruits. An original and festive alternative, perfect as an aperitif and for celebrations.

How are the vines of Domaine Rampon worked?
On clay-limestone and granitic soils of the northern Beaujolais, the vine is worked in reasoned and artisanal cultivation: goblet pruning, entirely manual harvest and systematic sorting at picking, for a rigorous selection of the grapes. The estate is HVE-certified since 2019.
What is the Morgon Tradition cuvee of Domaine Rampon?
The Tradition cuvee is the flagship of the estate's Morgon. From vines on the Côte du Py and Les Micouds (3.5 ha in total), it is aged in barrel for 6 to 7 months. This Morgon stands out for its density, its aromas of black cherry and undergrowth, and its ability to age 5 to 8 years.
What is the Morgon Cuvée d'Lucien?
The Cuvée d'Lucien is a single-plot Morgon of the estate, a tribute to Lucien Delorme, one of the founding generations. A Morgon of character, born from old vines on the decomposed soils of the Côte du Py, deep and structured.
What is the difference between the Fleurie and the Morgon of Domaine Rampon?
The Fleurie is the more elegant: plots planted in 1958 and 1965 give a floral, silky wine with melted tannins, ideal from 2 to 3 years. The Morgon Tradition is more structured and deeper, with a marked terroir expression; it needs a few years of ageing.
