Our values
We are a family business that has always taken responsibility and reasoned over the long term. For us, “good farming sense” prevails, far from fashions. With us, it is “farmer’s common sense” that prevails, far from passing trends.
Working with nature forges character! You learn observation, resilience, anticipation, and adaptability.
Benevolence, loyalty, discretion, respect…. If we had to resume our values in just a few words, it would be these!
Benevolence towards those that work with us daily in all of our activites, but naturally also our faithful customers, in France and around the word, with whom we have forged close relationships.
Our belief in a good job well done, our constant desire to advance and exploit the best of what progress has to offer for the planet and for man, a deep commitment to sustainability… these are our driving principles.
Practical steps towards sustainable viticulture
For many years, we have chosen to place life - that of the soil, plants, animals and people - at the heart of our approach. This starts with a deep respect for the earth: our vines are fed only with organic fertilisers of natural origin, made from sheep manure. Herbicides were abandoned in 2015, in favour of gentle practices that promote soil vitality.
We also pay great attention to biodiversity. Trees, hedges, natural grass cover: every element of the landscape is designed to welcome life and encourage a balanced ecosystem, where the vines flourish in good company.
Water management is also one of our priorities. We recover rainwater, limit inputs and take great care over the treatment of cellar effluents.
When it comes to protecting the vineyard, we favour natural solutions, such as mating disruption to limit the reproduction of pest butterflies, and careful observation of the vines to ensure that we intervene as little as possible.
Finally, we believe in innovation when it serves the living. Since 2023, we have been testing an autonomous electric tractor, the Vitibot, which will enable us to significantly reduce our carbon footprint. And because the earth likes to be shared, we open our pastures to horses and regularly welcome flocks of sheep. It's a simple, joyful way of reconnecting with agropastoralism, and letting biodiversity work alongside us.
