Domaine du Tane showcases a remarkable variety of wines, thanks to its vineyards located across four distinct villages in the Beaujolais region: Saint Etienne des Oullières, Saint Etienne la Varenne, Odenas, and Salles Arbuissonnas. Each village features different soil structures, which contribute to the complexity of the wines produced. Some vines thrive in sheltered areas, while others bask in direct sunlight, resulting in a diverse range of blends that reflect the unique characteristics of each site.
This winery produces wines from several appellations, including the renowned Brouilly appellation, known for its slopes around Mont Brouilly. The primary grape variety here is Gamay, which yields full-bodied, robust red wines. Notably, some of the vines at Domaine du Tane are over a century old. Winemaker Jacques Genetier, who transitioned from a career in software engineering to winemaking, carefully manages vine growth to ensure optimal maturation without overburdening the plants.
The Beaujolais Villages appellation encompasses 38 villages in the northern part of the Beaujolais region, offering wines that are a step above the standard Beaujolais. Among the standout offerings from Domaine du Tane is the Perles de Gamay, a sparkling wine crafted from Beaujolais Village Rosé, which highlights the region's unique terroir and winemaking tradition.

Write a reviewThis was an outstanding visit to a small winery with a great family history. Jacques is very passionate about his work with excellent wines being produced. He gave us a great tour with a fabulous insight into all the challenges that he faces year round, especially climate change. Greatly enjoyed seeing the field machinery and visiting the vines to learn about his day to day decisions that he has to make with them. The wine tasting was fabulous. Thanks again Jacques for our great visit.

An unforgettable experience. We, me and my wife, spent 2 wonderful hours with Jaques. Professional explanations, from the vine to the bottle. With an unparalleled tasting experience. Thank you Jaques. We learned a lot of details about Beaujolais and how it is made with love and passion. We will come back.

Very nice discovery! Tour of the winery and wine tasting by the owner (a person easy to talk to) and wines for all tastes. We enjoyed both sunrise and sunset with a magnificent view of the vineyards and Mont Blanc in the background.

Discovered via the Park4Night application and very well received by Jacques who invited us for a tasting. Jacques is very personable and passionate about his profession, which is evident in his bottles. We left with some souvenirs. I highly recommend!

We discovered the area thanks to the Park 4 night application. We were welcomed with open arms and had the opportunity to do a wine tasting in addition to being able to park our van on the grounds for one night. I, who don't like red, was surprised by the Beaujolais Nouveau. We leave with new knowledge about wine that the owner passed on to us with passion. And we also leave with Brouilly and “comme un hug” which bears its name wonderfully. THANKS
