Édouard Lepesme, 37, has a respectable curriculum. Agronomist, he then followed oenological studies, while from the Parisian region where he lived he moved to the places of origin of his family, in Yonne, the northern sector of Burgundy. Just in Burgundy he completed a field training, alongside established winemakers: Thomas Pico, Olivier De Moor, Claire Naudin, not without completing the process with an experience in New Zealand. In 2014 the big step, with the takeover in the company of Antoine Donat, which detects. The Vaux vineyards - just south of Auxerre - had already been certified organic since 2000, and Édouard naturally continues in this direction. Today the 14 hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot noir are cultivated with wisdom and passion, as well as with a great ecological rigor, with an eye and a mind to biodynamics. Édouard himself follows the same rigor in the cellar, where fermentations are spontaneous, long and precise refinements, wine additives limited to small quantities of sulphites. Our vintner is in no hurry: he aims to expand the cellar, to work with greater comfort and functionality, but without precipitation. From such accuracy are born Burgundy red and white tense, precise, of impeccable finesse and definition, as well as Crémant worthy of the Olympus of the best classic methods. .
