Pairings
- Start up year: 1877
On 8th June 1877, Zaccharie and Marguerite Geoffray acquired Château Thivin and the two hectares of vineyards surrounding the estate (Le Clos).
Each subsequent generation would contribute new plots of land to the estate and develop the cultivation and winemaking methods. Today, the fifth and sixth generations of the Geoffray family run this small family business, work the estate's vineyards and vinify each wine, respecting the terroir of origin as the seasons change.
Today, Claude Vincent is happy and proud to take his three grandchildren, Tobias, Nicolas and Florina, into the vineyards and cellar to initiate them into the secrets of the trade and give them a taste of working the land. Read more
