Here we are on Pixelfed! We are a family winery in the Loire valley. We launched Maison Gandon in 2019 from scratch - on vinetards that have belonged to the family for several generations. We love crips whites, fruity reds and elegant bubbles ... 🥂

2011: l’année de parution de ce récit initiatique d’Étienne Davodeau qu’est « Les ignorants ». Auteur de bandes dessinées que je connaissais déjà, à l’époque, il m’a fait découvrir la vigne et le vin, du moins intellectuellement.

Domaine La Grange Tiphaine Montlouis "Clef de Sol"; various Montlouis, dry and otherwise, by François Chidaine or the late Jacky Blot at Domaine de la Taille aux Loups; Domaine Roche aux Moines Savennières; various Saumur by Arnaud Lambert; lots more in the Loire; lots in SA but you have to pick carefully; ditto California. #chenin

El estilo depurado y onírico que #Carreyn plasma en esta obra está en línea con el universo estético de intimismo y ensoñación de #TerraRemota, una imagen elegante y sofisticada, pero a la vez audaz, igual que su #Chenin 2021 http://www.periodistadigital.com/elbuenvivir/20230104/terra-remota-chenin-2021-produccion-ecologica-689404819114/ #vinos #Empordà #DOCatalunya
Terra Remota Chenin 2021 Producción Ecológica, un gran blanco de producción limitada - El buen vivir de Juan Luis Recio

El único monovarietal de chenin elaborado en el Empordà presenta su añada 2021 con una nueva etiqueta a cargo del artista visual Julien Carreyn. La verdad es que la chenin es una variedad poco frecuente en el Empordà, y sin embargo ha sido una constante en la bodega Terra Remota. Desde sus inicios, la bodega […]
