Domaine Jean-Yves Millaire -- ‘Château Cavale’ Rouge
“It is the passion for the winegrower's profession and the respect for the land of my childhood that naturally led me to Biodynamics. I am committed to presenting you with authentic, signed wines, whose particularity above all is to be alive.” -- Jean-Yves Millaire
The story of this family winery begins in 1950 when Jean Garnier bought the land and vines. Grandson Jean-Yves & wife Christine began the significant undertaking of converting the family vineyard to Organic & Biodynamic practices, in 2006. They are extremely dedicated to Biodynamics and the excellent results they achieve through this farming and winemaking process.
