Anchored in Regnie-Durette, at the heart of the Beaujolais, Domaine Gilles Coperet is a family wine estate where passion and authenticity guide every gesture. For several generations, Annie and Gilles Coperet have cultivated their vines with a deep respect for the terroir and a desire to pass on the soul of the Beaujolais through their cuvees, across the great crus Fleurie, Regnie, Morgon and Brouilly.

The richness of Gamay, the emblematic Beaujolais grape

Since the 17th century, Gamay noir a jus blanc has been the sole grape of the Beaujolais crus. On the slopes of Regnie, Morgon, Fleurie and Brouilly, it reveals all its diversity: from fruity, gourmet wines to powerful, elegant cuvees. This grape finds at the estate a singular expression thanks to meticulous work in the vine as in the cellar.

The Fleurie wines: Les Roches & La Madone

AOP Fleurie - Gamay, the cru of finesse

Fleurie Les Roches, powerful and concentrated, with floral and spicy notes; Fleurie La Madone, elegant and refined, marked by the finesse of its silky tannins. Two faces of the Fleurie cru, whose vines below La Madone were acquired in 2018.

Regnie: the cru and the Equation cuvee

AOP Régnié - Gamay, fruity and friendly

Regnie AOP: fruity and friendly, ideal young or after a few years of cellaring. And Regnie Equation, an exceptional cuvee, concentrated, with aromas of tea and sweet spices. The estate's historic cru, in Regnie-Durette.

Morgon & Brouilly Saburin

AOP Morgon and AOP Brouilly - Gamay for cellaring

Morgon AOP: powerful and structured, the perfect companion for slow-cooked dishes. Brouilly Saburin: a ruby red with elegant tannins, ideal with white meats and terrines. Two great Beaujolais crus, full of character.
