THE TEAM
It was the people`s determination and persistence that made the dream come true and brought to light the hidden secrets of Tinos` waterless soil.
Stéphane Derenoncourt
MASTER VIGNERONA skilled winegrower-consultant whose advisory services are based on an all- encompassing strategy used at more than 140 wine estates, in Bordeaux and all over the world. Convinced of the fact that a purely scientific, oenological approach presents a risk of standardizing the taste of wine, Stéphane Derenoncourt strives primarily to express the character and identity of vines, as a living substance, as well as the soil in which they grow, the climate they are immersed in and the work of men and women who cultivate them.
