Marc Soyard stands out as one of Burgundy's most gifted and industrious young Vignerons. Recognized by the city of Dijon for his talents, Marc was entrusted with the care of 8 hectares of historically esteemed vineyards just beyond the city limits in the Coteaux de Dijon. Rather than succumb to urban expansion, Dijon opted to preserve this significant agricultural expanse, inviting young agriculteurs, including those without familial ties to winemaking, to take on the task. Marc seized the opportunity, showcasing his prowess by producing exceptional wine, which we have procured and are delighted to share with you. Simply put, there's not much more to say.

Marc honed his skills formally at Beaune's Lycée Viticole before gaining practical experience at the Vins Des Viennes négociant project in the Rhône, mentored by the likes of Pierre Gaillard, Francois Villard, and Yves Cuilleron. His most recent apprenticeship under Jean Yves Bizot, spouse to another of Burgundy's natural wine pioneers, Claire Naudin, left an indelible mark on him. It's no surprise that Marc's time at Domaine Bizot profoundly influenced his winemaking approach, resulting in wines characterized by finesse and purity, hallmarks of top-tier organic viticulture and the burgeoning movement towards traditional, low-intervention winemaking.

Marc's vinification process relies on natural yeasts, with aging taking place in a combination of new and seasoned barrels. He often pushes boundaries by experimenting with various wood types such as chestnut and acacia, further showcasing his innovative spirit in winemaking.
