    The location of the farm was beautiful by the river and we got to experience the wave on the river. The family that runs the farm were very helpful and nice. Breakfast was great and we got to taste the wines produced on the farm. We felt at home.

Company info

If we have the taste for contacts and meetings, we are also winemakers engaged in a viticulture that makes sense, Organic and Bio-dynamically. We settled in 2006 after a long stay in Asia. A magical place that seduced us, by its environment (the Dordogne), the architecture (the Chapel) and the quality of the terroir (for the quality of the wines).
