Our first appearance in the RVF's Guide des meilleurs vins de France deserves to be celebrated with the whole team

Recognition of the work accomplished by everyone, despite the numerous climatic hazards we have faced in recent years. Never have we wavered from the course we set ourselves: to offer sincere, unadorned wines that reflect their terroir, often (though not always) straying from the expected conventions of Bordeaux wine. We are wine lovers, always in search of new discoveries, new emotions. Emotion is our quest—striving constantly to offer wines that provoke thought and engage the senses. Questioning and doubt are ever-present here. Six years ago, when I threw myself headlong into this adventure, I was a simple wine lover who did not realise the sheer depth of skill and rigour required to craft wine. Being self-taught compels me to keep questioning, always challenging what I do not understand, and drives me to explore new paths whenever the conventional answers fail to satisfy me. It touches me deeply to read this review and realise that our approach, our philosophy is understood, and even better, our individuality recognised. The excellent scores awarded to our wines come as a surprise to us, given that our wines still retain a touch of youthful clumsiness. We still have so much to learn, so many mistakes to avoid. Yet these scores hold us to a standard. They motivate us to persevere along this path, to keep forging new ways forward in a world of wine where climate change will compel us all to rethink our practices. Thank you!
