Discover the timeless elegance and bold creativity of our wines, designed for lovers of refinement and adventure.
We designed it as nature sees the days succeed one another. Piccolo, the youngest, a joyful morning friend, sings his melody on extravagant notes. Saxo joins him in a more structured way, with the experience of the elder who does not take himself seriously. They mix their playful sounds until the end of the day. Then comes the secret song which seems to invite us to a twilight serenade, something more substantial, deeply anchored, ends with the romantic walk in the moonlight of our Armance vintage, the eldest of our vintages, from of our old vines.
These four wines inspired by captivating melodies and timeless literary stories are an ode to the harmony and mystery of biodynamics.
Eosphoros
In Greek mythology, Eosphoros is the “bringer of the light of dawn”. His brother “Hesperos” is the “evening star”. These two characters symbolizing the cycle of days are in reality the two faces of the same star, Venus. For us, this wine symbolizes the passing of the torch from one generation to the next, the light of knowledge acquired from our parents, the sharing of this knowledge and the traditions that are perpetuated. We also wanted to give a nod to the association of our two families and the meeting between Bordeaux and Champagne.
