Olivier Pithon

Originally from Anjou (Angelvine), Olivier Pithon (brother of the famous Jo Pithon, emblematic winegrower of the Loire Valley) settled in Calce in 2001 on about fifteen hectares. A little paradise between sea and mountain ", Olivier said. Before that, Olivier Pithon worked with Stéphane Derenoncourt, famous Bordeaux winemaker and self-taught winemaker, who will make him aware of the importance of tasting during winemaking and of the choices of intervention (punching, pumping over, unloading). Since his arrival in Calce, Olivier Pithon has made a name for himself and is now known for his work and the quality of his white and red wines. The soils of its vines are clay-limestone, schist and marl. The vines are managed according to the principles of biodynamic principles. Its approach is global with the participation of animals such as cows or bees, grass cover in its vines controlled and sown (lying down in spring) and is interested in agroforestry. At Midi-Vin, the range of wines from the Olivier Pithon estate are delighted with their quality and diversity, wines with unquestionable vintage effects. For our greatest pleasure...
