Vincent Quenard, the visionary who established Maison Altisolis in 2023 after years of thoughtful consideration. His educational journey at the Beaune wine school from 2011 to 2016 was instrumental, providing him with a wealth of knowledge that significantly influenced his career. During this time, Vincent undertook internships at prestigious Burgundian estates, including Domaine Trapet in Gevrey-Chambertin, Buisson-Charles in Meursault, and Maison En Belles Lies in Saint Aubin, which enriched his understanding and deepened his passion for winemaking.
In the summer of 2016, Vincent returned to his family's vineyard in Savoie, where they established a brewing workshop utilizing their organic cereals, alongside a distillery. Recently, he and his brother Mathieu have launched a new small estate in the commune of Chignin, named Le Prieure de Saint-Hughes.
The vision for Maison Altisolis began to crystallize in 2022, with over a year dedicated to carefully crafting its foundation. Vincent's goal is to excel in the art of wine maturation, with an initial emphasis on the subtleties of Burgundian wines. He recognizes that each phase—from terroir selection to barrel choice and ageing methods—plays a crucial role in producing a wine that authentically represents the winemaker's essence.
Currently residing in Savigny-les-Beaune, Vincent has already developed a network that has resulted in three cuvées in his inaugural year: Aligoté, Santenay, and Maranges. His experience in the vineyards of the latter two appellations during his studies culminated in a dissertation focused on the Marange plot. The wines produced are entirely whole bunch fermented with natural yeast, and they are unfined, unfiltered, and non-chaptalized, with only a minimal addition of sulphites prior to bottling.
For the 2023 vintage, he will also produce Hautes Cote de Beaune Rouge, Bourgogne Blanc Cote d’Or, Savigny-Les-Beaune 1er cru Les Lavières, Savigny-Les-Beaune 1er cru Les Narbantons, and Beaune 1er cru Clos du Roi. His philosophy emphasizes respect for these terroirs, advocating for limited oenological interventions, particularly in the careful and measured use of sulphites.
Vincent aims to produce around 12,000 bottles annually across nine appellations, ensuring a personalized and discreet approach to winemaking that defines Vincent's vision for the future.
