Sarted in 2019 by Dutch expats Sylvie and Thierry after a career in Amsterdam restaurants. With their two children in tow, they purchased 8ha in Lantignié (5.5ha of which are under vine) and quickly set about conversion to certified organic farming. They also began planting fruit and nut trees to kickstart bringing biodiversity back into the vineyards.
