About the winemaker
Laurent is the sixth generation at this family estate and with his appointment things changed course. He was the first to decide to no longer sell the grapes to the cooperatives, but to keep the best fruit himself and start bottling himself. A decision that has led to a great reputation and demand for the wines. Laurent Charvin is a winemaker who chooses only quality and makes no concessions. Laurent focuses on low yields, organic viticulture and as little intervention as possible in the cellar. His attention to the vineyards produces excellent fruit and makes it almost easy to get high quality wines.
