    Coming Up

    Since 2015, the winemaking at Château Le Clos du Notaire in Bourg, France, has been shaped by Victor Mischler with the kind of steady hand that keeps an estate’s style coherent over time. The handover that year, made with Amélie Osmond, is the key fact of the role: a transfer of stewardship that marked both continuity and a new phase for the wines. At Château Le Clos du Notaire, the work is not about display. It is about reading the site, making decisions with discipline, and holding the estate’s direction with consistency.

    Where They Are Now

    The current style at Château Le Clos du Notaire is framed around balance: oak is present, but kept in check, so it supports the wine’s shape without taking over. The palate is described as round and supple, which points to wines built for texture rather than edge. Aromatically, the wines are broad and expressive, giving them immediate presence. The result is a style that aims for polish, generosity, and clarity in equal measure. The estate also describes its wines as demanding, accessible, and resolutely modern. Taken together, those terms set out a clear brief: seriousness without heaviness, approachability without softness, and a contemporary finish without excess. Within that framework, Mischler’s role since 2015 has been one of measured guidance, keeping the wines composed and integrated while allowing the estate’s identity to remain legible.
