Philippe Viet established his domaine in Villié-Morgon in 2019 after apprenticing with Eric Janin at Domaine Paul Janin in Moulin-à-Vent. Now Philippe farms 5ha of 50-year-old vines across lieux-dits in Régnié, Fleurie and Morgon.Worked without chemicals from day one, Domaine Viet's vineyards are now in the process of organic certification. Inspired by the wines of low-intervention pioneers Jean Foillard and Yvon Métras, Philippe uses whole-bunch fermentation, gentle extraction and minimal sulphur to craft Gamays with a sensual fragrance and juicy fruit character.Grown at 500m on Régnié's granite-rich soils and aged in a combination of amphorae and stainless steel, Haute-Ronze 'Mosaïque' is generous and silky, its brambly fruit laced with rose petals. Philippe's Fleurie-Poncié brims with red cherries and sweet spices, while his Morgon 'Corcelette' shows structure and power, offering dark fruit and mineral accents.
