About Allante & Boulanger

Christian Boulanger and Mathieu Allante work a small patchwork of vineyards in the southern Jura, around Rotalier, Maynal and Gizia. Both spent time at Domaine Labet, with Christian working there for more than fifteen years, before gradually gathering parcels of their own through leases, purchases and the recovery of abandoned vineyards.
