In a region where lineage and land are often spoken of together, that work is less about display than about keeping two estates legible, active, and tied to place.
The Path

To be custodian of Château des Places is to hold a line of continuity in Arbanats, France, while the co-directorship of Vignobles Reynaud since 2009 reflects a shared responsibility for maintaining identity over time. The craft here is managerial and agricultural at once: reading what the land asks for, respecting inherited rhythms, and making decisions that keep an estate coherent from one year to the next.
