    Coming Up

    Marilyn Lasserre trained at Bordeaux, and that early grounding remains the quiet architecture beneath her work.

Today, Marilyn is winemaker of Céllier d'Eole, bringing that training into the daily rhythm of one estate and one purpose. The trajectory is direct, but it carries the weight of discipline: a move from study to practice, from learning to shaping, with winemaking firmly at the center.
