François Blanchard's vineyards
Named Le Grand Clere, this is a great example of biodiversity. His passion for the land has been forged by a system of sustainable agriculture: simple, dedicated and effective. He has planted several fruit trees, all over the place, which has allowed native flora and fauna to develop freely to ensure an organic and natural process.
Low yielding, the soils of the site are clay and large fragments of flint. The estate is planted with Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc, and the vines are approximately 40 years old. Two hectares of vineyards full of life wherever you look.
