Domaine de la Charbonnière-Girl Power!

omaine de la Charbonnière was purchased by Eugène Maret in 1912 as a gift for his wife. She was a native of Châteauneuf du Pape and a winemaker’s daughter from the appellation.

Nice hubby eh!

Fernand Maret, their son, inherited a part of the estate and enlarged it upon the birth of his son, Michel. This son Michel ultimately took over the family estate. As a passionate winemaker, he brings to Domaine de la Charbonniere, its rebirth.

Since 2004, the domaine has taken the name of Michel Maret et Filles(& Daughters) to make the revival of Domaine de la Charbonniere by Caroline and Véronique (his 2 daughters) easier.These two hardworking young ladies dropped by The Vintry with a Scottish man with no camera savvy! and gave me a very interesting tasting of their wines which you can take a look at in this video.
