Aujoux

Aujoux, formerly "Beaujolais Wine Company" was purchased in 1938 by Mr Amann, a leading Swiss businessman. In November 1954, the company was named Aujoux SA, after the former CEO Jean-Marc Aujoux, who was a particularly talented visionary. In 1990, to strengthen their weight in Beaujolais, they combined with other famous houses, Jacques Depaqneux and Chanut. The company was then renamed Alliance of Fine Wines. The extension continued southwards in 2002 with new interests in the Languedoc Roussillon. This was the beginning of Signatures de Sud.


In 2007, the house expanded by moving to La Chapelle de Guinchay, to allow further development of the company. Aujoux today enjoys the most modern facilities and a dynamic business development team that brings to market 10 million bottles per year, both in France and from around the world.


Located in the heart of the Beaujolais vineyards, the Municipality of La Chapelle de Guinchay is surrounded by the most prestigious vineyards such as Saint-Amour, Julienas, Chenas and Moulin-a-Vent. Aujoux is committed to producing wines that reflect more accurately the character of the soils and climate.


From Burgundy to the Rhone Valley through Beaujolais, Aujoux has many partners and chooses wines that reflect the work of both nature and winemaker.
