A word from the winemaker:
"I cultivate an 8-hectare estate, certified AB by Ecocert. The estate is made up of 5.5 hectares of Malbec, 1.2 hectares of Merlot, but also Tannat, Savagnin, Pinot Noir, Trousseau, and Chenin. The terroirs are the old alluvium of the river, divided into large geological terraces and composed mainly of sand and gravel. The vines cultivated by horse, approximately 3 hectares, are at the origin of the pure Cot, Savane, Petits galets, Le bon, la brute, le truand and Vieilles vignes vintages. The other part of the vineyard surface is cultivated in permanent grass. All the vintages are without oenological inputs."

Label & Natural Wines

Some labels can help us identify a natural wine. The AB label, for example, certifies organic farming. The Demeter label, for its part, guarantees biodynamics. There is also the 'Vin Méthode Nature' label, as well as 'Nature et Progrès', 'Les Vins SAINS', and many others.

Some estates choose to adhere to a single label, or even not to be labeled at all, even though their cultivation and winemaking method would allow it. In other words, there is no strict rule. It all depends on the winemaker's vision, his desires, and his convictions.

For us, it is important to meet all the people we work with in order to understand their working method and select the products that match our ideology.

Natural wine

At Terra Vinea, we are deeply passionate about natural wine. We love the emotions it arouses, the surprises a bottle can give us, the memories wine gives us. We also find it important to consume a product grown and vinified with respect for the fauna and flora, preserving all the life around and in it. These convictions are part of us, and we are proud to represent these women and men who put their heart and soul into offering us these living wines.
