Detailed info
Af ter studying engineering and working for a number of years in the technological sectors of the entertainment and nuclear industries, Éric Texier finally gave in to his passion. He returned to school in his native Bordeaux where he studied viticulture and oenology. His training ended at Verget, inthe mâconnais, where under the tutelage of renowned winemaker Jean-Marie Guffens, he learned the basics of wine-growing and how to respect the land through minimal human interference. His wines are made from property-owned vines, rented vines and vines on long-standing collaborat ive contracts with other winemakers. His 25 sources come from the mâconnais and northern and southern Rhone. They combine tradition with f ree-spi r ited c reat ivity. Although Maison Éric Texier only has a short history, it a lready displays g reat matur ity and is worth watching over the coming years.
