i. Biography
Where They Are Now
Winemaking at Château Gaby and estate direction at Vignobles Sullivan place Damien Landouar in two linked registers: cellar work and broader oversight. Since 2016, his role as Director General has sat alongside the hands-on demands of the wine itself, with vineyard and cellar kept in the same frame. The work asks for calibration at both scales — the vintage in front of him, and the estate around it. At Château Gaby, the emphasis stays on the wine; at Vignobles Sullivan, it extends to the decisions that shape how an estate functions over time. That combination gives Landouar’s current position its weight: continuity since 2016, with responsibility that runs from the detail of production to the wider rhythm of the property.
