Considering a 360-degree project
A relationship based on listening and time
When accompanying a winegrowing project, you provide it with a large slice of concrete advice: coming up with an idea, developing it, putting it into practice and monitoring it.
But what would it be without the immaterial part played by the vintner? An unexciting program made up of instructions, verifications and validations – nothing more. A clinical approach rarely produces a unique wine.
My proposal is that of an attentive professional relationship.
Listening and availability are my priorities: The former has taught me over the years that it’s indispensable to understand one another and to move forward together in the same direction. Afterwards, being really there during the key vine and winegrowing moments, allowing me to closely monitor an approach, all the while directly participating in the actions undertaken. This proximity promotes a trusting work relationship and the serenity of sharing.
