ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Domaine Les Bruyères was started in 1955 by Georges Reynaud when he planted 20 hectares of vines in Beaumont-Monteux by the Isère River. Starting very small, it was only after his grandson, David Reynaud, took over the estate at 28 years old when things began to escalate. 5 generations of the Reynaud family succeed one another at the estate. a family history made possible by David Reynaud’s mother, Marceline, who made the link between her son, who was to finish his studies, and Georges, his father-in-law, who took care of the estate after the war at the end of the 1980s. When he constructed a new winemaking facility in 2003, the creation of wine on the estate was all organic, and they were certified biodynamic by 2005. Today, the estate stretches 20 hectares with 14.5 hectares in Crozes and 5.5 ha in IGP Collines Rhodaniennes. All green work is done by hand. Yields are low, around 35 hl/ha, which gives deep and fresh wines.
Directed by David Reynaud since 2000, the Les Bruyères estate aims to produce great wines by working in the greatest harmony with nature. Certified organic and biodynamic agriculture, the estate favors cultivation by hand at each stage: disbudding, lifting, elimination of inter-hearts, harvesting, sorting on the table… These traditional methods, gentle on the fruit and using little fossil energy, are then relayed by gravity, to the cellar, by an elaborate system of vats with natural shapes and materials.
