In 2007 wine merchant Fabien Duperray decided to take his turn in the winemaking adventure . He established a winery in the Beaujolais region, between Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent and Chénas. In the beginning of his journey he was producing 100% Gamay reds and 100% Chardonnay whites. The name of a domaine was chosen as a tribute to Jules Chauvet, a pioneer of natural wines.
