6 Philosophy In 1990, when my father Pierre LANDRON retired, he told me: «Make quality, it will always pay off». The inheritance of a vineyard situated on the Sevre river s hills and the experience shared during several years with my father are my philosophy s basis: looking for my wines quality and identity through their balance and while respecting the vines and the terroirs. In this way, organic and biodynamic cultures are obvious to me as they are strongly linked to QUALITY!

7 Cultivation and winemaking Vineyard s cultivation without any chemical products. Ploughing, hand picking. Winemaking with natural yeast and limited inputs (sulfites). Ageing on lies from 7 to 24 months according to each terroir s potential.
