Description

About the Producer

Antoine Petitprez, a talented winemaker, founded Maison Uliz, a hidden gem in winemaking. Renowned for his expertise in organic and biodynamic viticulture, Antoine serves as a consultant for prestigious Burgundy domaines like Domaine Meo Camuzet and Domaine Dujac, granting him access to exceptional grape sources for crafting outstanding wines. Maison Uliz remains under the radar because Antoine prefers working in the vineyard over marketing. Established in 2008, the winery produces limited quantities, with 85% sold in France, including 50% in Michelin-starred restaurants. In his cellar, Antoine practices whole-cluster fermentation, lengthy maceration of 3 to 4 weeks, manual punch-downs, and minimal sulfur use. His white wines are fermented and aged in barrels, while all wines are bottled unfiltered, reflecting meticulous attention to detail. Maison Uliz wines tell captivating stories of their origins, showcasing Antoine's masterful skills. This is a rare opportunity to experience the artistry of Antoine Petitprez and the exceptional terroirs of Burgundy and Savoie.
