Domaine Renardat-Fâche is a family-run winery in Mérignat, in the Bugey region of eastern France, with a winemaking history spanning over eight generations. The estate is best known for its organic and biodynamic production of Bugey Cerdon, a lightly sparkling rosé made using the traditional “méthode ancestrale.” Grapes are grown on limestone and clay soils, then hand-harvested and fermented slowly. The wine is bottled before fermentation is complete, allowing natural bubbles to form in the bottle without added sugar or yeast. The estate has been certified organic since 2012 and focuses on expressing the freshness and fruit character of Gamay and Poulsard grapes.
