Philipe Delmée 'les ch'nins on boit et la carvane passe' 2021

Philippe Delmée started making wines in 2008. At the time he was also a maths teacher, living in Brest. He would commute between Brest and Anjou, living out of a Caravan. In 2011 he stopped teaching, allowing him to focus solely on making wine. He now has 6ha of vines, which are spread out across 16 small plots in different locations around Faye-d'Anjou and Faveraye-Mâchelles. Laden with different types of schist, he is able to produce wines that are fresh, with notable minerality and acidity. He uses biodynamic preparations and treatments, and tries to use as little copper and sulfur in the vineyard as possible.
