Taking care to preserve this outstanding natural terroir, owner, Sophie Fourcade-Rieffers and her team have sought new alternatives, while at the same time drawing from the lessons of the past, or sometimes even accepting that starting over is the only answer.
And while some may consider its relatively modest size to be a disadvantage, Sophie would argue the reverse is true; that being small is precisely how the vines are tended in a way that would be impossible anywhere else, and in so doing elevating the vineyard to the very pinnacle of the appellation.
“Here it is more like gardening than farming.
That’s it basically.”
