MOULIN DE PEYRONIN
THE CHÂTEAU
- HISTORY -
It is in 2006 that our adventure begins within the Château Moulin de Peyronin located in the commune of Pujols (33350). We are Véronique and Franck, and it was only at the age of 25 that we took on the challenge of taking over this winery.
The vineyard, spread over 14 hectares of vines, has been run in organic farming since 1975 and it seemed obvious for both of us to continue to produce organic wine in the Bordeaux Appellation. Seduced by these environmental practices, we decided to convert the vineyard to Biodynamic during 2017.
- OUR BACKGROUND -
We met during our studies at the Lycée Agricole de Libourne - Montagne, where our common passion for wine brought us together. With different backgrounds, we form a complementary team. Indeed, one owns a BTS Viticulture Oenology and the other, a BTS Technico-commercial Wines and Spirits.
After having had some professional experiences in the world of wine, the desire to live our passion led us to push the doors of the Château Moulin de Peyronin.
ORGANIC AGRICULTURE / BIODYNAMIC CULTURE
The vineyard has been certified organic since 1975 and we obtained the ECOCERT certification in 1985.
We have also decided to convert our vineyard to biodynamic in 2017. Two years later, we obtained the DEMETER certification.
At Château Moulin de Peyronin, we integrate practices that conform to the method of biodynamic agriculture, which allows us to prevent the onset of diseases.
We seek a global balance that will allow the vine to develop in a harmonious and healthy way.
Human work is privileged. Preventive control is very important: observation of the vineyard is essential.
We were seduced by this vision of biodynamic agriculture. Our goal is to give us all the means to reflect in our wines, the richness of our terroir and the work of man.
Biodynamics resonates in our minds as a farm that must be consistent with the environment, not the environment in general, but the environment around it.
For us, biodynamics is synonymous with biodiversity, agroforestry, respect for the soil and the environment.
