Chateau Clos Maou Petit Manou (750ml)

Françoise and Stéphane Dief were driven by their passion for wine to produce wines they love to drink and that others would appreciate as well. They are part of the Bordeaux “garagistes” winemaking movement where they literally turned their garage into a makeshift wine cellar and made their first wine 1998 and made just 600 bottles produced. 

Since that first vintage, the couple started managing estate wineries to fund the purchase of more vineyards.  They are still a very small operation, with about 18 hectares under vine.  They have also invested in their winemaking facility and their equipment in order to produce high quality wines in the style that they personanally love.  Some of these improvements include, a fully restored 600-sq.m. fermentation cellar in the village of Saint-Christoly de Médoc, two environmentally-friendly wine storages cellars providing the ideal environment to age wine and equipped with concrete eggs and terracotta amphoras.
