ABOUT OUR WINERY
Our wines are like a dream come true. It has always been the dream of our founder, Ismo Rantala, to produce extraordinary wines in France. The dream came true after Finnish American couple Ismo Rantala and Petra Soderling decided to move back to Europe, locate in some of the best wine areas in the world and go into wine business. Family business has grown in short time to extended family business with essential staffing decicions.
Thanks to the depth and flavor of the grapes grown in our vineyard, our winery now specializes in the production of premium natural wines that showcase the remarkable quality of the region.
The beautiful and picturesque location in our ancient factory building makes for an extraordinary backdrop for a romantic road trip, an exploration to regions lovely medieval villages , or a fun afternoon with friends in a local bistro.
Our rustic, beautiful open space tasting room is open to the public, and our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be happy to help you pick a bottle or two of your favourite wine to take home with you. Come visit us today!
