Trophées de la Gastronomie et des Vins: Winegrower of the Year 2026
On 2 November 2026, at the Palais de la Bourse in Lyon, Le Progrès and the Toques Blanches Lyonnaises awarded us the Winegrower of the Year Trophy: a lovely gift for our 10th vintage.
On Monday 2 November 2026, the 18th Trophées de la Gastronomie et des Vins were held at the Palais de la Bourse in Lyon. Organised by the newspaper Le Progrès with the Toques Blanches Lyonnaises, under the patronage of chef Yoann Conte, the evening brought together the talents of food and wine: the awards, young talents in the spotlight and a dinner by four women chefs.
The Winegrower of the Year Trophy goes to the estate. Le Progrès celebrates a journey that started from scratch in 2016: a 3,500 m² garden in Ampuis and our first vinifications in our garage.
“For our 10th vintage, we could not have dreamed of a finer recognition than this Winegrower's Trophy. When we think back to our beginnings in our garage, our heads full of dreams and with no real idea where this adventure would take us… the road we have travelled touches us deeply.
Behind this trophy lie a lot of work, sacrifices and doubts, but above all wonderful encounters. We want to share this award with our team, and with all the sommeliers, chefs and restaurateurs who trust us and are the finest ambassadors of our wines. And for me, as a Lyonnaise, receiving this distinction in Lyon has a very special flavour. We never imagined living such a moment when we set out on this adventure… So, quite simply, from the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU!”
