My background

I am the daughter of a winegrower who passed on to me his great respect for the earth.

However, I began my career in a very different profession - teaching - in which I worked for a dozen years. After several trips abroad, I decided on a course of studies in oenology at the School at Changins, in canton Vaud. I then consolidated my knowledge in practice by taking charge of a domain of five hectares at Saint Léonard, the village where I was born in canton Valais. At the same time, I acquired further experience working part-time in an oenological laboratory.

After my return from a stay in the United States, and after the birth of my third child, I decided to go into business on my own. In 1992, I founded my domain and built my cellar on the high plateau at Grimisuat, between Sion and Saint Léonard, in canton Valais.
