Our philosophy can be summed up as follows: Produce without destroying the living and without harming man with the simplest and healthiest means. The objective is to make sincere and lively wines, pure grape juice without oenological make-up. The vines are worked in organic farming, the grapes harvested by hand and spontaneous fermentations (indigenous yeasts). No oenological input or violent transformation until bottling. Very low doses of so2 can be added exceptionally if the wine has a low resistance to oxidation or the beginning of bacterial deviation, the objective remaining zero inputs. No filtration either. About half of the wines vinified are made from grapes grown by us, the other half from purchased grapes. These grapes are systematically from organic farming, certified or not, and are also systematically harvested by us, at a maximum of 30 km from us and with always the same winegrowers (5 in total). Our vines are certified organic by Certipaq. We have passed all the cuvées in Vin de France since 2019, so we had to change the name of the estate to Calvez-Bobinet (formerly Domaine Bobinet), since the use of the Domaine name is confiscated from non-AOC vineyards.

<p>Notre philosophie peut se r&eacute;sumer ainsi : Produire sans d&eacute;truire le vivant et sans nuire &agrave; l'homme avec les moyens les plus simples et les plus sains. L&rsquo;objectif &eacute;tant de faire des vins sinc&egrave;res et vivants, pur jus de raisins sans maquillage oenologique. Les vignes sont travaill&eacute;es en agriculture biologique, les raisins r&eacute;colt&eacute;s &agrave; la main et les fermentations spontan&eacute;es (levures indig&egrave;nes). Pas d&rsquo;intrant oenologique ni de transformation violente jusqu&rsquo;&agrave; la mise en bouteille. De tr&egrave;s faibles doses de so2 peuvent &ecirc;tre ajout&eacute;es exceptionnellement si le vin pr&eacute;sente une faible r&eacute;sistance &agrave; l&rsquo;oxydation ou une le d&eacute;but d&rsquo;une d&eacute;viance bact&eacute;rienne, l&rsquo;objectif restant le z&eacute;ro intrants. Pas de filtration non plus. A peu pr&egrave;s la moiti&eacute; des vins vinifi&eacute;s sont issus de raisins cultiv&eacute;s par nos soins, l&rsquo;autre &agrave; partir de raisins achet&eacute;s. Ces raisins l&agrave; sont syst&eacute;matiquement issus de l&rsquo;agriculture biologique, certifi&eacute;s ou non, et sont aussi syst&eacute;matiquement r&eacute;colt&eacute;s par nos soins, &agrave; maximum 30 km de chez nous et avec toujours les m&ecirc;mes viticulteurs (5 au total). Nos vignes sont certifi&eacute;es bio par Certipaq. Nous avons pass&eacute; toutes les cuv&eacute;es en Vin de France depuis 2019, nous avons donc du modifier le nom du domaine en Calvez-Bobinet (anciennement Domaine Bobinet), puisque l&rsquo;utilisation du nom Domaine est confisqu&eacute;e aux vignobles non AOC.</p>
