The Domaine Manoir du Carra is a family vineyard located in Denicé, Beaujolais, in the southern part of Burgundy.

It was founded in 1850, with planted vineyards dating back to 1683.

It all started in 1918 when Jean-Marie Sambardier started at the vineyard as a worker.

His son, Jean Sambardier, had the same position in the vineyard and continued to develop the vineyard of the Manoir du Carra.

It was in 1962, when Mrs Guillot, the former owner, passed away that Jean Sambardier decided to buy the vineyard in order to start his own production. His son, Jean-Noël then took over the vineyard.

The Domaine has worked hard throughout all the years to grow very quality vines in and to make the most quality wines.

Today, Jean-Frédéric and Damien Sambardier follow the family tradition and continue to grow the vineyard.

From 4 hectares in 1962, the vineyard has now over 50 hectares!
