The Winemaker

The Winemaker, The Gardener

 

Christophe is the kind of man that is more likely to have a piece of string and a knife in his pocket then a cell phone, he grows his own vegetables, fixes things instead of replacing them and has an aversion to ironed clothes. He has a total disregard for town gossip but is quietly aware of which direction the wind is coming from or the stage of the moons waning or waxing. He readily admits his lack of patience but can easily enjoy an hour watching the dance of a honeybee and an entire season the ripening of a fruit. His deep understanding of our place in the natural world is an important foundation of our wines.

Christophe has traveled since a young adult, the kind of travel where his pack is light but the experiences are heavy, weighed down by truly exploring other cultures and ideas. As much as these adventures nourish him he is always, usually in the spring, called back to his home and to the busy business of growing things.

He dreams with his feet firmly rooted to the ground. It is the rich blend of living life mindfully, his awe and respect for nature and his clear vision that makes him such an interesting and successful wine maker.

“…making natural wine is actually letting the wine go its own way, to find its own balance, to let it be the best it can be. I just help it a little, I don’t play around with my wines, I support them, make sure they are in the best situation to develop themselves, I am very careful not to harm the wine, that is all” –christophe jammes

Christophe’s acute awareness of the vines and ripened fruit balanced with his steely confidence, insatiable search for knowledge and unwavering respect for the grapes, vines and wine has enabled him to push boundaries in his winemaking and produce exceptional Natural wines.
