We're talking to you about his Winery
| For about ten years now, Bruno Debon (a former photographer and graduate of the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Photographie d'Arles) has made a 180° turn to "make organic apples". 2500 apple trees (6 varieties) planted from 2010. He sells all of his production (fruit and juice, dried apples, composites) through the AMAP network and some of the finest restaurants in the region. The 2ha of vines are on the Winery website, so it made sense to continue the same work in organic. Meetings and friendships with Cyril Fhal, Jean-Christophe Comor, ... led him slowly towards more freedom. In 2018, Bruno Debon's work tends to be even more respectful of his environment and beyond an organic certification, he "is surely looking for a humanity, a sharing, an even more honest road." 2018 was a year "marked by a deep desire to discover these more lively wines, these good juices that stir up greed. A journey where nature is an ally, where man participates more and more, as a farmer, as a humble artist, and meetings with winegrowers and other enthusiasts make me follow a freer and more demanding path without doubt" - Bruno Debon himself :-) |
The Winery Terres des Nus, located in Châteaudouble in the Var, is barely 2 ha of vines and 1 ha of apple orchard in front of the maison at the bottom of a limestone canyon. Further down, in the plain, there are three small plots of vines (50 year old Syrah, 20 year old Grenache, Vermentino (or called Rolle) and Roussane) and freshly planted thyme. Above Châteaudouble at an altitude of 600m, a plot ready to welcome Savagnin and then there is "Lo mas d'en garrigue" a beautiful old 70 year old macabeu vine on a schist terroir, facing north-east, which rises to a ridge above the village of Montner in the eastern Pyrenees. Vines found by Cyril Fhal (Clos Rouge-Gorge) a friend of Bruno Debon. These old vines are worked, pruned and harvested for Bruno and Cyril, and often vinified at Cyril's place. Everything is worked in organic (Ecocert certified) and all the wines are without inputs. |
