About Dom de l'Ecu
Producer Story
At a time when modern oenology triumphs (good or bad, you see), we often tend to forget that a great wine is conceived above all in the vineyard: tillage, controlled yields, disbudding, split, manual harvest and respect for the biotope. Avant-garde, the Ecu estate is certified in Organic farming since 1975 and in Biodynamic since 1998 (Demeter) on all of its 28 hectares. We have also been Biodyvin certified since 2014.We have given up all technological artifice in the cellar to break with the movement of standardization of wines and preserve the link between each of our cuvées with a terroir and a vintage.
