Winery BELEMA

A winemaker experienced in the natural wines of Savoie

Yann Pernuit is a winemaker who already has a lot of experience in the vinification of natural wines in Savoie. He worked for many years at Château de MérandeHe worked for many years in the winery, then he was at the side of the late Dominique Belluard in Ayse in Savoie.

The launch of the Winery Belema

In 2019, Yann creates Les Vins de BELEMA and starts his first vinifications with grapes bought in the area while working at Dominique Belluard. The first wines tasted are straight, precise, salivating!

Planting of vines in Ayse

Following the tragic death of Dominique Belluard, Yann has redoubled his efforts to plant vines in Ayse in Haute-Savoie in order to be economically viable as soon as possible. We obviously find local grape varieties that are sometimes forgotten, notablyEtraire de la Dhuy, but also Altesse, Mondeuse and, of course, the famous Gringet, which expresses itself so brilliantly among the limestone scree of the Mont Blanc valley....

We know and appreciate Yann's work because we went to see him at Belluard and at Château de Mérande. A meticulous worker, in love with nature and biodynamics.
