From this winery

Becoming a winegrower is the great adventure that began for us 20 years ago; a dream for those who have no family background in vineyards or wine but are just passionate wine lovers. Step by step, we have created a 12-hectare estate today in the appellation of Brézème located in the northern Rhône and in the Ardèche just next door, in the Ouvèze valley.

Our approach and philosophy are born from personal journeys, readings, meetings with emblematic winemakers around the world and unconventional farmers. Read more
