Trenel Fils

The House of Trénel produces a broad range of wines from Beaujolais and Mâconnais. The greatest exigency is required for each appelation as well as regular contact with the winegrower.

The Beaujolais wines, for example, can be istinguished by their body and richness. Emphasis is placed on the extraction and the ageing potential during cellar maturation.

History of The House of Trénel

The House of Trénel was created by Claude-Henri Trénel in 1928. Thanks to André Trénel, his son, it has become a real and respected reference in all good restaurants, whether in France or abroad.

This experienced man built the House of Trénel with hard work and sheer force of willpower. It has retained the print of its quality requirements as well as the specifics, which made it well known:
its ranges of Crus du Beaujolais, its wines from the Mâconnais and its fine fruit liqueurs from Burgundy.

Bourgogne (English: Burgundy) is one of the 26 régions of France.

The région of Bourgogne is both larger than the old Duchy of Burgundy and smaller than the area ruled by the Dukes of Burgundy. It is made up of the following old provinces:

* Burgundy: Côte-d'Or, Saône-et-Loire, and southern half of Yonne. This corresponds to the old duchy of Burgundy (later called "province of Burgundy"). However, the old county of Burgundy (later called "province of Franche-Comté") is not included inside the Bourgogne région, but it makes up the Franche-Comté région. Also, a small part of the duchy of Burgundy (province of Burgundy) is now inside the Champagne-Ardenne région.
* Nivernais: Nièvre département
* the northern half of Yonne is a territory that was not part of Burgundy (at least not since the 11th century), and was a frontier between Champagne, Île-de-France, and Orléanais, depending from each of these provinces at different times in history.
