appellation

Saint-Amour

The Saint-Amour is the most northerly of the ten Beaujolais crus. It is produced in the department of Saône-et-Loire, in the limit with that of the Rhone.
The production area is located in the heart of Saint-Amour-Bellevue, located geographically very close to Burgundy.

Estate

Château de la Greffière

Since 1924 and 4 successive generations, the GREUZARD family has been vinifying different terroirs of appellations in the South of Burgundy and Beaujolais.

Their know-how is the result of a balance between today's traditions and techniques.

Located in La Roche Vineuse in the Mâcon region, the estate produces very beautiful appellations such as Saint Véran, Pouilly Fuissé, Saint Amour or Mâcon Milly Lamartine.
