DOMAINE LANDRON
Muscadet Sèvre et Maine, France
In 1979 Jo Landron settled in at Domaine de la Louvetrie at his father’s side, practicing a form of intensive agriculture. In 1983 he vinified Le Fief du Breil separately, then in 1990 decided to cut yields in half, not without objection from his just-retired father. In 1996 the first results were felt. But he was bored tasting his wines, a bad sign for any good vigneron. In 1999 he moved to organic agriculture, then to biodynamics, which he considers a state of mind rather than a formula. So it was he revivified his soils. “You can make mistakes in life, but when you realize your mistakes, you no longer have the right to make them.” His wines are a wonderful tribute to the man he calls his mentor: Guy Bossard, one of the pioneers of organic and biodynamic viticulture in the Loire.
