Many wines which are produced throughout the world today are good from a technical point of view flawless, irreproachable. However, often they lack soul. Wine is not only a product it must also be a work of art. This exactingness can be seen in the fifty-some technical operations that are involved in the vineyards’ annual cultivation (without mentioning the wine-making process) to which is added an essential, uncontrollable element : year-round weather conditions. Viticulturers contrary to lawyers, woodworkers, political representatives and foremen measure and assess the possibilities for failure or success of the coming harvest by scanning the sky. This healthy stress, this unvoiced worry this is a portion of the soul of Malfard’s wines.

Moreover, a good wine must be made in a beautiful place. A viticulturer’s love for his wine is not only due to its terroir, however prestigious it may be. There is also a complex affective alchemy between the latter, the walls and the architecture of the “château”. Alternately, the grapes must “feel good” in the vats, in the casks and in the bottles. Where harmony reigns, the ideal conditions for producing good wines also reign.

The soul of Malfard wines still comes from the magic of its wine-making premises.
