The Producer

About No Control

This French winemaker is all about natural wines! They're converting their vineyard to organic farming, using special preparations and minimal tilling to keep the soil healthy and teeming with life. It's not just about avoiding chemicals, they even use a horse named Praline for some tasks instead of machines! This dedication to nature extends to their winemaking, contributing to what they call "living and natural wines." Basically, these folks are passionate about creating delicious wines in a way that respects the environment and lets the grapes truly shine.
