Claude Lafond @Chai de Reuilly 6th October 2008




Photos posted in memory of Claude Lafond, who died over the weekend, sorting grapes from his vineyard at Argentan in the Chai de Reuilly, where Reuilly producers share winemaking facilities while keeping their wines separate. In 1992 after the local Quincy/Reuilly cooperative collapsed Claude was instrumental in creating the winery, which was built on his land.
