Presentation
“Hunchback” is the term for uneven and hilly terrain, which describes our hilly terroirs well.
But a Hunchback is also part of French popular culture. Indeed, in the Middle Ages, hunchbacks (people with a bump on their shoulder) were feared, full of malice and cruelly mocked. However, they were also, according to tradition, a bringer of luck for whoever rubbed their bump.
Our CUVEE DU BOSSU is a mixture of all these senses.
Supported plots producing wines of character, skillfully expressing the riches of the terroir, patiently throughout their maturity.
