Wine is an art that brings people together like gastronomy.
As a child, she spent a crazy amount of time in her grandmother’s restaurant in Brittany, where she masterfully ran her truck driver. The homemade, generous and tasty cuisine was listed in the gastronomic guides.
During the week, the truck drivers and on the weekend, the fishermen. She got the formula from her grandmother that the calories linked to pleasure are useful calories.For a little over five years now, Sophie Roulé has been creating dialogues between wine and all other forms of art. She is keen to introduce estates that respect the stages of the vine, which preserves the taste of the terroir, the taste of the soil. What she calls author wines.
She sees little interest in tasting expensive and well-known grands crus. On the other hand, discovering a nectar from the Marcel Deiss estate, for example, also means learning why this philosophical winemaker talks to his vines and spends so much time in his cellars, why he preserves the necessary mushrooms at the foot of the vines rather than destroying them with chemicals. Every gesture, every action has an impact on quality.
With her living wines, her author wines, her nods to history and art, Sophie Roulé takes you on a journey and tells you stories of passion. And who doesn’t like great stories?
