The Jongieux vineyard, between the mountian Dent du chat and the Rhône river, is a particular micro-terroir. It is here that the Barlet family has cultivated for 5 generations the love of the land and the vine. Until the 1960s, wine was produced for sale in bulk. With the arrival of Noël and Pascal in the 1980s, viticulture gained in quality and since 1990, the estate has been part of the Vignerons Indépendants. 28 hectares are cultivated under the High Environmental Value label.
