La vigne
Jean-François Decroix est un pionnier du bio en Charente.
« Toutes des ressources sont là, dans la nature. Il ne tient qu’au vigneron, l’artisan de son vin, de les employer au mieux pour révéler la beauté de son terroir. »
Son maître-mot pour la conduite du vignoble est autonomie.
Autonomie et indépendance de la vigne vis-à-vis d’apports extérieurs. Ceci est rendu possible grâce à des cultures intermédiaires d’août à mai qui satisferont les besoins physiologiques de la plante tout au long de l’année. Des fèves, des pois, de l’avoine… qui nourriront la vigne lorsqu’elle en aura besoin. Ainsi une vie du sol riche et abondante permet l’alimentation suffisante et continue de la plante pendant son cycle végétatif d’avril à fin octobre.
Elaboration
Cépages : 90 % Ugni blanc et 10 % Colombard
Vendange du raisin au mois d’octobre
Vinification : à peu près 3 semaines pour obtenir un vin autour de 9° d’alcool - Double distillation à la méthode charentaise (obtention d’une eau-de-vie à 60°-70°)
Vieillissement 10 ans en fûts de chêne
Élaboration finale (ou « coupe ») visant à réduire l’alcool à 40° en associant les meilleurs lots pour créer l’équilibre le plus harmonieux.
Dégustation : la robe est d'un or intense. Le nez est expressif, complexe, sur le tabac blond, le caramel au beurre, les fruis secs grillés, les épices. La bouche est ample, douce, harmonieuse,avec une matière séveuse, presque onctueuse. La finale est riche, intense, sur des notes de toffee, de raisins secs et d'épices.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
