Domaine de la Bongran, a family story that flourishes in Quintaine, in the heart of the Mâconnais. The name Jean Thevenet remains inseparable from this place and the excellence of the Viré-Clessé appellation. Across some twenty hectares cultivated with care, the estate has built its reputation on wines that express the potential of Chardonnay with finesse. The Thevenet family, committed to their traditions, crafts single-parcel cuvées of great purity. The Viré-Clessé "Cuvée Tradition E.J. Thevenet," sourced from old vines, perfectly embodies the estate's style, as do the Mâcon-Villages Quintaine "Cuvée Tradition," which are ample and beautifully complex. Domaine de la Bongran also distinguishes itself with its rare botrytized cuvées, such as the Mâcon-Villages "Cuvée Botrytis" or the Viré-Clessé "Cuvée Levroutée," dessert wines with remarkable aromatic richness. It is said that Jean Thevenet was particularly fond of these dessert wines, perfect for pairing with local goat cheeses. Domaine de Roally Viré-Clessé completes this range of unique expressions, shining a light on the Mâconnais. Among the most sought-after cuvées are Jean Thevenet Domaine de la Bongran Viré-Clessé 'Cuvée Tradition E.J. Thevenet', Thevenet Domaine Emilian Gillet Viré-Clessé Quintaine, and Jean Thevenet Domaine de la Bongran Mâcon-Villages Cuvée Botrytis—useful benchmarks for understanding the house's identity.
