Parole de caviste : Vintro (Danemark)

Au Domaine du Clos de l’Epinay, on aime bien donner la parole aux autres pour parler de nous… Les cavistes de Vintro (Danemark) sont experts dans les meilleurs vins bio, biodynamiques et naturels… Et ils nous ont choisis.

Voici ce qu’ils disent de nous :

The winery was created by Antoine and Henri and consists of 18 hectares. It is located at the end of the first hill of Vouvray, a very old winemaking region in Loire dating back to medieval times.

Domaine du Clos de l’Epinay is located on the Vouvray ridge line. The vines surrounding it benefit from many different slope orientations allowing fine modifications of the terroir. There are 10 defined terroirs on the Domaine, each having its own winemaking route. Clay and limestone are the main soil types.

The core of the estate is Chenin Blanc, however, they cultivate 1 ha of red grape varieties : Pinot Noir, Gamay, Grolleau and a coupçon of Malbec.

All vines are grown organic and biodynamic and in the cellar the wines are vinified without intervention or sulphites. 2023 is their first vintage and it already shows great promise.

(en Danois, ça aurait donné quelque chose comme ça : Alle vinmarker dyrkes økologisk og biodynamisk, og i kælderen vinificeres vinene uden indgriben eller svovl. 2023 er deres første årgang, og den viser allerede stort potentiale. Vi ser frem til at følge projektet og smage mange flere vine fra Antoine og Henri.)

A propos de l’auteur (extraits tiré de leur site web) :

Behind Vintro we have Simon and Marius. We have been taking care of Vintro for the last years. Simon is a French bird that landed in Denmark by pure luck, but fell in love…Originally for a 6 month internship, he then decided to continue to write his story in Scandinavia. For some people this is a surprise because you have plenty of wine in France, a production country. But the move to Denmark (a consumption country) opened his mind in a new ways and his curiosity for wine has only kept growing. After learning how to make wine in Loire and finishing his Bachelor in Bordeaux, he moved to Denmark, and it has been a great experience so far. Simon wrote his Bachelor thesis about orange wine, worked at Vintro for more than a year and decided in September 2019 to move forward and to be a part owner of Vintro. Enjoying the easiest things in life, good food, good friend and good drinks. This thirsty French boy is from a gourmet family, with a butcher brother and chief father. He decided to get some drinks on the family table.
