Millaire Vineyard
A family 
It all began when Jean Garnier purchased several plots of land in the 1950s. In 1979, the estate was leased for 18 years. In January 1998, Jean-Yves Millaire, Jean Garnier's grandson, took over the family business. Now joined by his wife Christine, they farm around 40 hectares divided into three different appellations: AOP Canon Fronsac, AOP Fronsac, and AOP Bordeaux. 

A land 
The Fronsac and Canon-Fronsac appellations are located on the right bank of the Dordogne River at the confluence of two rivers (the Dordogne and the Isle). This unique feature protects the vineyards and ensures a favorable climate. The terrain is very varied, with many hillsides and clay-limestone soils resulting from the erosion of the parent rock, guaranteeing a great terroir. 

A philosophy 
Their work as winemakers, focused on quality and respect for our Earth, naturally led them to organic and biodynamic farming. Thanks to cultivation techniques that avoid the use of herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and other synthetic pesticides, they produce natural wines that are the pure expression of their terroir. We prioritize soil cultivation, grass cover, leaf removal, and, above all, meticulous monitoring of each plot because, in organic farming, everything is based on anticipation and prevention. The winemaking process is natural, without artifice, thanks to the winemaker's expertise. The renewed symbiosis between man and his vines allows our wines to express their full essence.
