A northern Frenchman or Ch’ti from Boulogne through his father, Gérard retains the paternal heritage of an offshore fisherman. But here, the Loire river and sport fishing at the Narcy Grand Etang (lake) are quite enough for him! Through his mother, he comes from farming stock going back to 1620 - rooted in the soil. So it’s through his mother’s heritage that he is a vintner and a hunter. At the domaine, with his sons, he happily completes the threesome!
Fabrice, the older son: Getting out of Les Loges, but not going too far … Staying true to Fumé while flirting with Pinot … Getting a foothold at La Charité-sur-Loire and taking on the challenge of red wine! For this man of the winemaking cellar, attached to his vines and to Pouilly wine, this is a quiet revolution! All thanks to his father and his younger brother, his two partners in crime.

Vincent, the younger son: This cross country runner and mountain bike enthusiast thrives on difficulty and effort. He has the modest smile of the winner seeking to improve his performance. He likes going out on the trail through the family’s clean wine operation where he works up a sweat, and has the 35-kilometer (22 miles) Sancerre Magnum footrace under his belt. He is proud of his vines, and of his Fumé and Chasselas grapes.
