After five years in California and fifteen years in New Zealand, Etienne and Aurélia chose to settle in the Loire Valley and to become winemakers, something they have been preparing for for a long time.

For the past two years, Etienne has been learning at the long established Domaine Romain Guiberteau, and Aurélia at the Saumur cooperative.
At the same time, they have built their own cellar and have acquired the first plots of what is now the domaine.
