Chateau Cambon began as a project of three friends in Beaujolais: the late Marcel Lapierre, Marie Lapierre and Jean-Claude Chanudet. The trio purchased a 13-hectare parcel of vineyards upon realizing that, despite being designated outside the grand cru status, it held prestige beyond title due to its unique mixed soil composition. Following the organic practices they began so long ago, today Marie Lapierre and Jean-Claude Chanudet have been conducting the work to new heights.
