Mons La Graveyre is an estate located in Cambes (15 km south of Bordeaux), right bank, nestled on a hillside overlooking the Garonne. 4ha, only 2 ha of vines, the rest is occupied by woods and undergrowth, meadows and other crops (fruit trees and truffle oaks). Our agricultural model is based on several major, virtuous and sustainable principles where Organic farming is the common base. We work in biodynamics, agroforestry, and lead a permaculture project. Trained as an oenologist and agricultural engineer, I took over this estate in 2016 in the spirit of produce a local wine, unique, reflecting its ecosystem. The great terroirs of gravel and of limestone clay, the southern exposure and this insolent nature rich in biodiversity never cease to get me the energy I need, and that I try to transmit in my wine. As transmission and sharing are part of our values, we enjoy sharing our space with our artist and craftsman friends for an exhibition and a concert, to the riffs of guitar, where everyone brings and enriches the other, all punctuated by festive meals, because eating and drinking with quality and pleasure makes it possible to punctuate this beautiful set

Mons La Graveyre est un domaine situé à Cambes (15 km au sud de Bordeaux), rive droite, niché
sur un coteau surplombant la Garonne. 4ha, seulement 2 ha de vignes, le reste est occupé par
des bois et sous-bois, de la prairie et d’autres cultures (fruitiers et chênes truffiers).
Notre modèle agricole repose sur plusieurs grands principes, vertueux et durables où
l’Agriculture Biologique est le socle commun.
Nous travaillons en biodynamie, en agroforesterie, et menons un projet de permaculture.
De formation oenologue et ingénieur agronome, j’ai repris ce domaine en 2016 dans l’esprit d’y
produire un vin de lieu, unique, reflet de son écosystème. Les grands terroirs de graves et
d’argilo calcaire, l’exposition plein sud et cette nature insolente riche en biodiversité ne cessent
de me procurer l’énergie dont j’ai besoin, et que j’essaie de transmettre dans mon vin.
La transmission et le partage faisant partie de nos valeurs, nous avons plaisir à partager notre
espace avec nos amis artistes et artisans le temps d’une expo et d’un concert, sur des riffs de
guitare, où chacun apporte et s’enrichit de l’autre, le tout ponctué par des repas festifs, car
manger et boire avec qualité et plaisir permet de ponctuer ce bel ensemble
