With a vineyard area of 18 hectares, he produces an average of 65,000 bottles per year, featuring some of the finest appellations from Côtes de Beaune and Nuits, Chablis, Moulin-à-Vent, and even the Northern Rhône.

"Due to his superb winemaking skills, Philippe Pacalet was once invited by Domaine de la Romanee Conti to take over as a winemaker.
However, he declined the offer because he aspired to establish his own brand and winery."

A disciple of Jules Chauvet, the pioneer of the natural wine movement, Philippe advocates for minimal intervention, emphasizing that "one must let the effect happen." Vinification is done without sulfur, relying on the action of indigenous yeasts.

The Pacalet style? Precise, mineral, with reds of subtle extraction and incomparable freshness, sometimes too light for the taste of the INAO (National Institute of Origin and Quality, note), and whites with tension and salinity. One goal and one goal only: to reveal the terroir. It's safe to say that the wines, much like the man himself, leave anything but indifference... Style or signature, just like his clean labels with double-P letters created by Swiss artist Roger Pfund, contrasting with the locally established tradition.

Now supported by his wife Monica, a Brazilian he met at a trade show in Sao Paulo, who didn't hesitate to book a one-way ticket to Beaune, and whose laughter brightens the misty days of the Côte d'Or, Philippe Pacalet continues to explore his craft with determination to share his wines generously. Since 2001, he has been working with Syrah, producing a Cornas cuvée every year, one of the most prestigious appellations in the Northern Rhône. And like a return to his roots, the landless winemaker recently acquired vines in one of Beaujolais' most renowned crus, Moulin-à-Vent, where he crafts a Gamay that excels in the art of winemaking.
