Buy Wine from Vincent Wallard
There are trajectories born of a desire to break the mould. Vincent Wallard 's is one of them: marked by travel, encounter and reinvention. Before wine, Vincent Wallard was a restaurateur in London, a film programmer and a bar owner. Wine was not a destination, but a discovery. Everything changed in 2011, when he settled in Mendoza. There he immersed himself in the world of "pateros wines", made without technology, without corsets, with his hands. A universe alien to the industry, but full of truth.
This first contact led him to collaborate with Bodega Cecchin - a pioneer in organic malbecs without added sulphites - and later to give life to his own project: Cuatro Manos - Les Vins Tonton, where his nomadic spirit and his passion for authenticity come together. Today he lives and makes wine in Berrie, in the Loire Valley, among limestone rocks and deep silences, from where he launches natural wines that are a liquid echo of everything he has experienced.
Without his own vineyard, but with a precise eye,
Vincent Wallard does not cultivate land, but he knows each plot from the roots. He buys grapes from small winegrowers with organic and biodynamic practices. He selects with rigour: Chenin, Grolleau, Cabernet Franc, Gamay? varieties that clearly reflect the character of the Loire. In the cellar, the approach is radically respectful: no sulphites, no filtration, no fining. Only spontaneous fermentation and long ageing on the lees. Its vinification site - caves dug in stone - brings natural freshness and slow time. Nothing is forced.
Vibrant, lively and sincere wines
Their natural French wines are intense, sometimes wild, but always with identity. The Tonton Blanc, made from Chenin Blanc, is precise, saline and vertical. The Tonton Rouge, a blend of cabernets, flows with crisp fruit, tension and elegant rusticity. Others, such as the P'tit Nouveau or the Grolleau and Gamay wines, surprise with their crisp freshness, lightness and vitality. These are wines that do not seek technical perfection, but truth. Wines that tell stories without artifice.
Between Mendoza and the Loire, a coherence without borders
The Argentina-France duality is not just a geographical contrast. It is a reflection of Vincent Wallard's soul: the generosity of the south and the precision of the north. From Mendoza he inherited the nudity of fruit, from the Loire, minerality and finesse. Both worlds come together in each bottle, with a coherence stripped of dogma, where the important thing is not technique but intention.
Wines that are lived
Drinking a Vincent Wallard wine is to encounter a story. There is no make-up, no formulas. There is fruit, ferment, earth and risk. These are wines that vibrate, that go off the beaten track, that invite you to drink but also to think. In a wine world where everything tends towards repetition, Wallard offers something rarer and more valuable: freedom
