wine label

In the heart of the beautiful area of Two-Mountains, in Saint-Benoît, more precisely on the row Saint-Vincent (predestined name, Saint-Vincent being the owner of the vine growers!), One recently finds a vineyard (8 000 stocks) of family type. Its establishment was difficult because the ground, formerly in waste land, was woven rocks. The equivalent of 100 trucksloads was extracted from it. The white dry wines, rosés and reds resulting from this calcareous soil located on a naturally drained slope, are the result of an entirely biological agriculture (certification O.C.I.A.);a first in Québec!

Owners: Carole Desrochers and Mario Plant
