The Team
OWNER - MANAGER
V i n c e n t l i s
In 2010, after studying across France, from Languedoc to Burgundy, and winemaking stints abroad, notably in Canada, Vincent Alexis returned to Pomport to write a new chapter in the history of the family estate. His wines are a reflection of who he is: skin-contact whites, diverse ageing vessels, amphorae and concrete eggs. Certified organic, the estate is a showcase for its terroirs and grape varieties, with a range of winemaking styles that bring a decidedly modern vision to a deeply rooted heritage.
THE BAROUILLET
A great team
My father, Gérard Alexis, co-manages the administrative side of the estate and oversees the upkeep of the buildings.
After training at Barouillet and the experience of creating his own estate, Romuald has rejoined our ranks, though in truth he never really left. Together, whether in the cellar or in the vineyard, we shape the estate's evolution towards biodynamics, as passionate friends and fellow winemakers.
Estelle has been part of the estate since 2015, handling administration and much more. Versatile and always welcoming, she is also the friendly face who will greet you for a tasting of our range.
Guillaume, Serge and Nico work with us in the vineyard.
You may also come across Suzanne, with her English accent, or our barefoot, beaming seasonal workers.
As my late grandfather, the ever-watchful guardian of Barouillet, would say: "Good kiss and walk softly!"
