A.O.C. Châteaumeillant Rêvésens Red

The description of our wines below gives an idea of the slow, patient construction of the Domaine in selecting the parcels, the soils and their orientation. The vineyard now covers 6 hectares, located solely in the commune of Vesdun in the Cher department. On my wine labels, I wanted to bear witness to the commune’s rich winegrowing past. The pencil lines represent one of Vesdun’s illustrious wine cellars, dating from the late 19th century and now converted into the town hall. These beautiful buildings encouraged me to commit myself to creating an estate, reviving viticulture and revealing the secrets of this land.

Seen from the air, photographs over time showed that the landscape had been gradually closing in since the early 50s.

Back on firm ground, eyes were drawn to vines buried in the undergrowth. A lot of information about the secret of the place, the link between men and this land, had disappeared. The links between the winegrower, the land, the vineyard and his social environment had weakened, not to say disintegrated. A state of natural disorder that characterizes the physical quantity defined above: entropy. So it took a lot of energy to restore the landscape and imagine how to revive a vineyard 100 years after its heyday.
