Presentation
Domaine Mathias is part of a family viticultural tradition spanning several generations. Its history dates back to Antoine Charvet, a winemaker and carpenter, who received an award in 1894 for the quality of his white wine from Chaintré. After him, his daughter Marie-Madeleine and her husband Claude Mathias continued to prosper the estate. In 1958, Jean and Claudius Mathias began selling their own bottled wines, marking a decisive turning point. In 1992, Gilles Mathias and Béatrice Prost took over the management and expanded the estate, reaching 12 hectares in 2019. Under their leadership, the estate was certified Organic Agriculture in 2010. Thibault Mathias, Gilles' son, continues the family heritage today, highlighting emblematic appellations of Mâconnais, such as Pouilly-Fuissé, Pouilly-Vinzelles, and Mâcon-Chaintré. Work in the cellar favors vinifications with indigenous yeasts and aging on long lees to enhance the aromatic richness and texture of the wines. The notable fact? The continuity of an early organic tradition in Burgundy, with an uncompromising approach to expressing the complexity of Mâconnais terroirs.
