Clos des Vins d'Amour

Being a winegrower is not a job, it is a life: an awareness, an infinite thirst for projects, discoveries, questioning, astonishment, a captivity, a friendship for the curious, a commitment to passing on knowledge, to passing on culture to future generations. We made this choice as a family, like a second life that we share.

Christine had never forgotten the vineyards of her childhood, those of her grandfather Georges, then of her father André, Padrì! In the Dornier family, we were familiar with wine, but as oenologists and cellar designers.

In 2002, the transmission of the family and the inheritance of plots of land turned everything upside down. Pruning shears and jumps in hand, on these schist hills, under the benevolence of the Cathar castle of Quéribus, we brought in our first grapes, and vinified our first vintages.

Since 2008, we have been cultivating our plots of Grenache, black, grey and white, Carignan, Macabeu and Syrah with our bare hands and a caterpillar, listening to the life that animates the land and the time that passes through the seasons.
