A few words about the domain:
Acquired in 1935 by my grandfather, the farm was then divided between vineyards and meadows. Located halfway up the hillside, to the east of the Madonna of Fleurie, in the place called "Prion", on sandy-granitic soil, the vineyard became, in 1978, the main crop of the farm, which currently covers an area of 7 hectares.
As the son, grandson and great-grandson of winegrowers, I took over the family farm in 1984 at the age of 20. For the past 20 years, the farm has been run using the "Terra Vitis" agro-ecological approach.
