From this winery
Alexandre Filaine is a reality of limited dimensions, but of ecelsa quality, a reality born and wanted by the great vigneron and oenologist Fabrice Gass. In Damery Fabrice harvests his hectare and a half of vineyards from which he obtains about 5000 bottles per year. Fabrice cultivates the vineyard, harvests, vinifies, transfers the barriques, carries out the drafts, remuage, dégorgement and stops. With the help of a few family members. Read more
