Domaine de Thalie was established in 2009 when Peter Gierszewski, a wine merchant purchased 4 hectares of vines and an old farmhouse in the village of Bray.
Macon-Bray, a tiny appellation on the western edge of the Maconnais, sits up in the hills above Cluny. It encompasses wines grown within the villages of Blanot, Bray, Chissey-lès-Mâcon, and Cortambert.
An area with its own micro climate, Peter’s vineyards have a westward orientation rather than SW and sit within an altitude of 300 – 450 meters. Being exposed to westerly winds ensures lower average temperatures, the area also having above average rainfall.
The farming has been organic since the beginning, certified since 2012, and biodynamic practices are employed. Fermentation is with indigenous yeast, the wines are un-fined and unfiltered. A small part of sulphur is added at bottling. These are wines of exceptional value and precision.
