Gilles Bonnefoy established Les Vins de la Madone in 1997, later transitioning his estate in the Côtes du Forez to certified organic and biodynamic viticulture to honor its unique volcanic terroir. His 'Dacite' Gamay is a standout expression of this philosophy, sourced from vines planted in rare volcanic soils that impart a distinct mineral complexity and tension to the fruit. The 2024 vintage continues his tradition of minimalist winemaking, producing a fresh, velvety red defined by elegant notes of violet and peony.
