CURIOSITY
AS A TEENAGER, VIVIEN STUDIED WINEMAKING IN ALSACE, IN THE DOMAINE LEON BOESCH WHERE HE LEARNT SOME OF HIS MOST IMPORTANT LESSONS IN BIODYNAMIC.
HE THEN SPENT TIME WORKING FOR WINE MAKERS IN NEW LELAND AND OTHERS PART OF FRANCE, AT CERTAIN POINT HE DECIDED TO MOVE BACK IN MINERVOIS WHERE HE COMES FROM AND TAKE OVER THE FAMILY VINEYARD.
HIS 13 HECTARES OF VINES ARE FARMED ENTIRELY ORGANICALLY & BIODYNAMICALLY AND HE BELIEVE THAT THE COMBINATION OF BIODYNAMIC PRACTISES AND LIMESTONE BEDROCK OF LIMESTONE BEDROCK ARE THE SECRETS BEHIND THE FRESHNESS & BALANCE OF THIS WINES
