🏡 A Family Nest in Moulin-à-Vent
Since 2012, the Lardet family has brought new life to this historic vineyard, originally planted in the early 20th century. Today, five family members — Paul, Danielle, Delphine, Jocelyn, and Stéphane — work hand in hand to craft expressive, terroir-driven wines with passion, care, and joy. “Le Nid” — the nest — is more than a name: it’s a symbol of their unity and love for the land.
🍇 Wines Rooted in Terroir
With 13 Gamay parcels across Moulin-à-Vent and 7 Chardonnay plots in the Mâconnais, every cuvée reflects the unique identity of its origin. From granite-rich hillsides to limestone valleys, each bottle tells a story — of soil, grape, and family.
🌿 Sustainable & Hands-On
All vineyard work is done by hand. The estate practices l’agriculture raisonnée, keeping the vines healthy and the biodiversity thriving. Each plot is vinified separately in small containers to preserve its personality, with tailored ageing using oak foudres, barrels, or concrete tanks.
🍷 Signature Cuvées
Tradition (100% Gamay): a juicy, fresh blend of several plots, whole-cluster fermented in the traditional Beaujolais style.
La Rochelle & Rochegrès: single-vineyard Gamays grown on pink granite and manganese-rich soils, aged 15 months in oak.
Mâcon-Villages: elegant Chardonnays from the Mâconnais, fermented naturally and aged on lees — pure, mineral and vibrant.
👨🔬 The Vision of Stéphane Lardet
Stéphane brings together tradition and innovation. Formerly in gastronomy, he now leads the vinification and oversees exports. His approach blends technical precision with a deep love for wine and its ability to connect people.
🌍 From France to the World
You’ll find LE NID on the wine lists of restaurants like Maison Troisgros, Mirazur, and L’Oustau de Baumanière, as well as in fine wine shops and bistros across France. The wines are also appreciated internationally — from Taiwan to Denmark — where their unique style speaks for itself.
