SCEA FAMILLE D’AMECOURT

Who are we

In January 2018, our estate received the “Prix d’Excellence” at the Ministry of Agriculture’s Concours Général Agricole de Paris, along with 40 other estates in France. Our company is certified HVE 3 (High Environmental Value level 3) by the government since 2020. CMR plant protection products (carcinogenic, mutagenic, reprotoxic) are prohibited in our company. We do not use herbicides. Grass cover is used between the rows and mechanical tilling under the vines. The property is located in the middle of a hilly, clay-limestone terroir called «TERREFORT, so-called because it is difficult to work, the white clay being hard in summer and soft in winter. The wines, vinified by cellar master Daniel Sore, benefit from acquired knowledge and the latest techniques in vinification: fully functioning winery, mechanical harvesting with berries and pips at optimum maturity, sorting of the harvest, cold prefermentation maceration and alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, pneumatic press, malolactic fermentation in epoxy-lined cement tanks, pumping over to privilege the fruit
