- Antoine grew up in the heart of the Loire Valley surrounded by vineyards, so it's no surprise he grew up to be a winemaker.
- His old world Loire Valley roots were allowed to flourish whilst winemaking in the new world vineyards of Argentina and South Africa.
- With the influence and valuable second hand knowledge of winemakers from across the globe at his fingertips, Antoine was ready to take on a vineyard of his own upon his return to the Loire Valley
