Description

Having been fascinated by nature and wine in general for many years, it was in 2020 that I decided to create my own estate by taking over small plots of vines on the hillsides of Tossiat, my native village. At the same time, I took a vocational baccalaureate by correspondence in "wine business management", while continuing to work as a nurse. I do my internships at the prestigious Domaine Michel in Clessé in the Maconnais region.

Since then, I've continued to work my vines alone, with passion and enthusiasm. I don't use pesticides or chemical weed killers. The estate has been in the process of obtaining organic farming certification since 2023.

Gamay is the main grape variety grown on the estate, but I've also been planting Syrah for a few years now, a grape variety found in the South of France in particular. The aim is to test this grape variety on our land and try to anticipate the global warming that seems to be accelerating in our region.

I'm proud of my atypical and passionate career. Don't hesitate to come and meet me to discover the work of vines and wine over a good glass of wine.
