Jean Berteau is the third generation winemaker following in the foodsteps of both his father and grandfather. He is known by his friends and colleagues for his relentless drive to make superior wines and his unique commitment to winemaking excellence. He has developed a philosophy based on following features :
Respect and accompany the vinegrower across the year, from the grape to the final bottling
Build mutual confidence with our partners and expand our know-how
Make a rigoureous selection of the grapes and bring a special care to the brand identity, making better and more obvious wines for the final consumer.
Our oenologists and staff bring full attention to people, soils, vines and vinification and the rhythm of seasons.
Anticipate, advise and follow the development of the product – from the picking of the grape to the glass. It is our task and priviledge to help our suppliers and partners understand the demands of the international market.
Produce and bottle in full respects of the wine while using the most modern equipment and highest industrial processes which guarantee a perfect follow up at each level of the production.
Three bottling lines, warehouses under continuous controlled temperatures, 30.000 Hl tanks of storage and vinification, an internal laboratory.
The proof of our technical know-how is our certification to the most demanding industrial standards (ISO 9001, HAACP, IFS at the highest level).
For La Compagnie Rhodanienne, each of our vinegrower partner brings his experience and soul to our wines, making us stronger.
