The Frenchman who fell in love with making fine Spanish wines
- Xavier took his pen off the paper in 1999, finishing his studies in Viticulture and preparing to make his winemaking dreams a reality in the shiny new millennium.
- Exchanging one winemaking hot-spot for several others, Xavier left Bordeaux to cut his teeth in some of Spain's most important winemaking regions. Ribera de Duero, Toro and Rioja are the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Xavier's very exclusive list.
- The years of experience came good in 2009 when Xavier established his very own Winery in Morales de Toro, his vineyard boasting a staggering 700m altitude and a ravishing selection of Tempranillo and Grenache vines. You don't need us to tell you that a vineyard like this + a winemaker like that = some seriously exciting loot.
