Professional courses

Our passion for wine came in 1989, the year of our arrival in France. Renaud had been engaged as a manager on a viticultural farm of 25 hectares on the Côtes de Castillon* (Gironde).

This first experience was completed by an activity as a consultant in vineries of the Charentes (Pineau des Charentes and Cognac producers), interesting for the technical and economical sights of the winegrowers profession.

But it was in december 1997, we had the opportunity to put into concreate the wish to have our "own vineyard" by buying the property named TIFAYNE, located in the vicinity of Monbadon (PUISSEGUIN)*, 15 km from Saint Emilion.
