Approximately 10,000 hectolitres are produced each year on this Terroir. The wines, vinified in semi-carbonic Maceration for the most part, are light and balanced, with notes of wild blackberries and morello cherries. The rosé wines are reputed to be excellent when produced in the commune of Ambierle.
