Domaine des Ailes is a boutique estate in Romanèche-Thorins, Beaujolais, operating as part of the Vignerons de Bel-Air collective. It farms sustainably, hand-picking 100% Gamay from mature vines planted on pink granite soils. The domaine’s small-lot production reflects a focused, artisanal approach rather than large-volume winemaking.
