New partnership for the distribution of Domaine Val d'Astier
Posted: 1st April 2021
Here at Convivium Wine we are proud to announce our new partnership for the distribution of Domaine Val d'Astier.
"Carried by a playful mistral, the echo of the Val d'Astier resonates as far as the shores of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. It carries the breath of the Seignes, a couple of artisan- winegrowers, Bruno and Ellen, joined today by Arthur and Laure, their children lulled by the scents and values of this beloved Provence. Fourteen years after taking the first steps to reclaim wild nature, the Vallon du Val d ́Astier has retained its authentic, natural character, made for sharing. Today, a new valley of twelve hectares "Les Pierres Blanche" planted with vineyards and olive trees have just been born to expand this little corner of paradise. In the eyes of Bruno and Ellen, still burns the energy of those who shaped the hill, deforested, planted, imagined trays and hillsides so that the vines are best exposed, in the soil who is honoured with a vine promised to the best, with those little flames in addition that speak of the shared happiness, some success."
History
Carried by a playful mistral, the echo of the Val d'Astier resonates as far as the shores of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. It carries the breath of the Seignes, a couple of artisan-winegrowers, Bruno and Ellen, joined today by Arthur and Laure, their children lulled by the scents and values of this beloved Provence. Seventeen years after taking the first steps to reclaim wild nature, the Vallon du Val d'Astier has retained its authentic, natural character, made for sharing. Today, a new valley of twelve hectares "Les Pierres blanche" planted with vines and olive trees has just been born to expand this little corner of paradise.

In the eyes of Bruno and Ellen, always burns the energy of those who shaped the hill, deforested, planted, imagined plateaus and hillsides so that the vines are best exposed, in a soil that is honored by a vine. promised to the best, with these little flames in addition that speak of shared happiness, of a certain success.
The rest is always a matter of time, leaving it to nature to express it and to the winegrower, to the “peasants”, a term they claim, the time to work the vines, the market gardening, the olive trees, the honey. The grape will love, when at the dawn of each harvest the hand of the winegrower comes alive and from his know-how, the colors will be born. A know-how acquired by Bruno in Burgundy, refined in Bandol, completed in Provence where he learned, listened to, tried, realized, so that today in the heart of their valleys are born from his hands of artisan-winegrower, the the delicacy of a white, the strength of a red, the multiple flavors of the rosés, vinified in the outdoor winery. A situation which allows it to leave room for the authentic expression of the wines.
