The 2020 story and our best wishes for 2021.
2020 : It has started to become the norm in the last few years... once again we didn’t get a real winter; lots of water on the other hand, which was good news considering the shortages of the past. In March, when the pandemic reared its ugly head, the world of man...
The story of 2019 and our best wishes for 2020.
2019 : The winter and early days of spring were quite mixed in terms of weather – the temperatures were sometimes surprisingly high for a while before suddenly dropping again. These sharp drops in temperature, when they occur in late April or start May, can freeze the...

The story of 2018 and our best wishes for 2019.
2018 : Winter had almost passed us by when in February, just as the apricot trees had started to blossom, we finally had a proper cold spell. Spring was not long in coming and by mid-April the vine had unfurled an abundance of delicate greenery. The frequent, heavy...

Harvest 2018.
Behind the scenes of the 2018 harvest at Domaine Pellé. Harvesting took place over 16 days between the 5th and 22nd September. There were a few drops of rain on the last Friday but, apart from that, the weather was fine giving us lovely healthy grapes! A big thank you...
In May…
It’s the merry month of May! Spring 2018 is being kind to us, a bit of cold weather, but not enough to keep us awake at night in worry. The vineyards are in good shape with the emergence of plenty of even clusters, which means that we will be carrying out some...
The story of 2017 & our best wishes for 2018
2017 : Winter was more marked than in previous years. Spring was warm and came early, leaving us no time to relax between training the vines and thinning the buds. However, the weather was almost too mild, and the warmth too early, because in late April, just as the...
Sadness at the empty buckets but joy at the full vats – the end of 2017 harvest.
3 October 2017. After three and a half weeks of intensive harvesting, calm has returned. A reason to feel a bit sad, but also to breathe a sigh of relief…and look on happily at the juices bubbling. Today Paul-Henry has decided to de-vat the first tank. Our thanks to...
In France we have a proverb “En avril ne te découvre pas d’un fil” meaning, “in April, do not remove a thread of clothing”
The situation at the winery currently reminds us that there was a morning which was far too cold back in April 2016 and right now the weather has been putting us on edge as it could potentially lead to another frost related disaster. Fortunately the environment is dry...
Our best wishes for 2o17 and the story of 2o16
2o16 : a black year and a lost year. Like the previous two years, it began with a winter without winter weather. The kind of winter that people who work the land don’t like, mild and wet. For us it was also a very sad winter, because on 2 March, Henry – my...
Our new white wine vat room!
After six months’ work, our new white wine vat room is operational. Pity that the April frost destroyed almost all of our harvest! ... we will only be trying out a few of the new vats this year. The Giroux and Stockingers have been set up in the old vat room built in...
