Jean-Philippe and Jean-Guillaume Bret are among the most admired producers in the Mâconnais, farming biodynamically and crafting Chardonnays of remarkable purity and finesse. Their Pouilly-Vinzelles — a lesser-known appellation just south of Pouilly-Fumé — is a hidden gem: all the mineral tension of the Mâconnais with an extra layer of depth and complexity.
Pale gold with green highlights, the nose shows ripe white peach, citrus zest, and chalky mineral notes. The palate is focused and precise with vibrant acidity, creamy texture, and a beautifully long finish. Wonderful with pan-roasted turbot, lobster, or a rich fish gratin.

Jean-Phillipe and Jean-Guillaume Bret
Jean-Guillaume and Jean-Philippe Bret loved coming for holidays to their grandparents' vineyard as children. This love led them to decide to study viticulture and oenology. Having gained experience in the wider wine world for eight years, they returned to Burgundy and took over La Soufrandiere in 2000. They started their own label, Bret Brothers, in 2001. Their ambitious objective adheres to rigorous specifications, using small plots of old vines farmed by passionate vignerons on specific terroirs. This allows them to choose the best grapes from the soils they wish to express. The commissioned grapes are hand-harvested by the two brothers themselves. Many of the vines are old, with some up to 50 years of age. This drives the intensity of flavour that they consistently produce.
