Christine and Joël Ménard settled in Rablay-sur-Layon in 1982. He is the son of a cooper converted into vines with the appearance of vats in the 1960s. After meeting with Christine in 1978, the couple decides to materialize this old dream by taking over the vineyards of Joël's parents. In 1989, they settled in a place called Hope and continued on their way with "at the bottom of their hearts, a little spark that motivates them every day to extract all the sincerity from their wines" Because the Ménards are those winemakers who dare and who try. They converted very early - in 1996 - to organic farming, then to biodynamics. They make it a point of honor to refuse any chaptalization (addition of sugar) or any oenological manipulation. Today, all the cuvées are under the Vin de France appellation. An act of militancy to continue making wines as they see fit, at most local. Besides these choices, there is also a solid peasant common sense as well as meetings with fabulous people to learn to go beyond customs and habits. Today their son Jérémy is joining them ... the next generation is guaranteed !!
