Patrice Legrand and Anne Latour inherited Patrice’s family’s vineyards in the Vallée de la Marne. In addition, Patrice developed a serious passion for paleontology, to the point where he assembled the seashell fossils that he found in the vineyards to create La Cave aux Coquillages, a little museum, in his family’s wine-aging tunnels. Patrice and Anne’s son Thibaud Legrand inherited his father’s métier of vigneron as well as his paleontological passion. He converted the vineyards to certified organic farming (and is on his way to biodynamic certification) and began bottling the wines based on the geologic time of the soil types in their vineyards.
'Éocène' is 75% pinot meunier and 25% chardonnay, based on the 2017 vintage.
