DAVID & WINE

I was born on January the 30th 1971 at Nimes, a beautiful roman city in the south of France, where I lived and studied until the age of 18 then I moved to Montpellier to study Biochemistry and Oenology at the Pharmaceutical University there.

My family has always been linked to wine production, but my great-grandfather was forced to sell his vineyard during the Second World War to support the family. 

I always dreamed of recovering this tradition, and there was never a second thought about what I wanted to do in life. When I graduated, I knew that to realize that dream I had to learn as much about the wine industry as possible so I undertook a multiplicity of jobs, and have not only worked in laboratories, but on the terroir with the vines, as well as in marketing, communications, wine making and events organisation. 

This has allowed me the opportunity to travel the world, to taste and talk about wines with hundred of people. However, along the way, as I learnt more and more about the wine industry, I began to worry. It looked more and more like a day may come when a small number of wine companies produce the vast majority of wine, and it struck me that the only way for small producers of quality wines to survive would be to create products that were distinctly unique. 

These unique wines would need to express their precise origins, and demonstrate not only regional qualities, but qualities specific to the meso- and microclimates within that region, and express small parcels and not huge expanses of land, and I have dedicated the last fifteen years towards this goal. 

That said: I’m not only a winemaker, when I’m not in the cellar, you can always find me a few kilometres down the road building my house, riding my dirt-bike in the mountains, or helping my son train for his rugby matches.
What I learned from my education was the respect of the work first and leaisure after.
Since my childhood I am passionate by sailing, off road motorbike and mechanic.
Getting older, step by step I had to develop some skills in order to always make most of things by myself .
To not count on anyone and keep autonomous as much as possible is my philosophy of life.
This is what I teach to my children every day.
