Vigneron depuis plusieurs décennies, j'ai toujours été interpellé par la nature qui, pour chaque vendange, pose le sceau de son cycle sur les perceptions de ce noble nectar qu'est le vin.
Tous les ans, mon inspiration me guide vers la meilleure approche pour élaborer des vins aux profils les mieux adaptés selon leurs origines.
Cette période, c'est une symphonie sans cesse révélée,
une ode à l'inspiration chaque année renouvelée.
Avec la gamme "Inspiration Plot 7.9 et 7.5.3" j'ai laissé place à mon inspiration pour explorer un univers plus complexe, plus divin, plus mystique,
plus subtil, plus stimulant qu'est celui de la vibration de la nature mère.
Ces associations de chiffre sont issues de parcelles de vignes aux caractéristiques différentes et complémentaires.
Le chiffre 7 présent sur chacune de ces inspirations est clairement défini comme étant le symbole de l'interaction de la vie humaine, des lois de la nature,
de la volonté divine et il caractérise parfaitement l'expression de ces réalisations.
Depuis quelques années, mon inspiration m'a guidé vers de nouveaux cépages comme le Chardonnay et le Gros Manseng, pour offrir une palette diversifiée,
en élaborant une nouvelle gamme de vins blanc en IGP Côtes du Lot.
NOUVEAU : " Côt Côt Côt "
Durant des décennies le cépage emblématique du vignoble de Cahors a été appelé Auxerrois puis Cot noir et enfin Malbec. Petit clin d'oeil avec cette cuvée à notre Cot français
The wine gets its name from the city of Cahors. The vineyard was planted there by the Romans and its trade naturally developed with the transportation of barrels on the Lot river towards Bordeaux.
In the Middle Ages, it was called "black wine » and was supposedly served at the tables of Alienor d' Aquitaine's wedding with Henri II, King of England.
François 1st appreciated it so much that he used to order it directly from Cahors.
The czar Peter the Great treated himself with Cahors wine, the Orthodox Church adopted it as altar wine.
In the 19th century, Cahors vineyard covers a surface of 40 000 ha, but regrettably it was destroyed by the phylloxera between 1868 and 1884.
A new plague hit the vineyards during the terrible frost of February 1956, annihilating 99 % of the surfaces. Vineyards were replanted with Malbec, but also with Merlot and Tannat.

The Lot is a region rich in surprises, it is worldwide reknown for its vineyard but also because it offers numerous treasures that will please both your eyes and your taste buds.
Its characteristic landscape is caused to the course of the Lot , the Célé and the Dordogne rivers within the calcareous limestone plateau with a rich variety of flora and fauna. The Regional Natural Park of the Causses of Quercy contributes to the conservation of this diversity.
Man has also brought his contribution over several millenniums with rock paintings or graves (Grotte of PechMerle, Grotte of Cougnac, Grotte of Foissac, …). It is also possible to discover numerous villages classified among the most beautiful of France (Autoire, Rocamadour, Loubressac, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, Capdenac-le-Haut, Cardaillac, Carennac). Do not forget to visit Cahors with its Pont Valentré and its historic heart, Figeac with its Champollion Museum, or Souillac with its Museum of the Automaton and Robotics.
Make the most of your tour by enjoying the gustative treasures proposed in the restaurants of Quercy, by passionate chefs who will help you discover delicate specialities. You cannot leave without having tasted the melon or the lamb of Quercy, the cabécou of Rocamadour, the foie gras or the truffle, always with a sip of Cahors wine … of course !.
If you are interested in astronomy, you may pursue your discoveries, even at night! Indeed, as the area is far from the large cities of the south west, the night-sky of Quercy is a renowned observation site particularly appreciated by the amateurs of astronomy.
Hotels and restaurants close to the Pelvillain Vineyards will make your stay even more enjoyable!
