The family business started in the 1920s and today Quentin & Mathieu (2 brothers) are the 4th generations to take over the farm. We have 22 ha of vines and more than 10 different grape varieties. We vinify 5 hectares of our handpicked grapes. The rest of our grapes are either brought to the village cooperative or sold to others local natural wine productors (e.g : le raisin & l’ange, les bois perdus, and others). We also have 11 ha of lavenders and 4 ha of olive trees that we grow in organic agriculture. Our philosophy is to propose terroir wines where grapes can truly reflect the vineyard in which they are grown. We only grow organic vines. The soil is mechanically worked and we hope to develop a biodynamic approach in the coming years. We are committed to respecting nature and promoting biodiversity in our plots. We harvest our grapes by hand and it enables us to select fruit and to handle them with care to get the best out of the grapes. It takes good grapes to make a good wine even for the best winemaker! In the cellar we work in order to bring out the best quality of the grapes We try and intervene as little as possible (no wine fining, no filtration, and no containers that could spoil the quality of the wine). Our wines are fermented thanks to yeasts naturally occurring in our plots or in the winery. Since 2022 our wines have been vinified without inputs and no sulfite added.
