About Vignereuse

Marine’s vines are located on a hillside overlooking the small village of Andillac, near Cahuzac-sur-Vère. Some of the vines are trained: Syrah, Braucol and a plot of Duras, the other is in goblet: Gamay, Mauzac, le loin de l’Oeil, and a pretty little 55-year-old plot of Duras. The vines are worked organically and certified since 2014.
