Domaine de l'Envol

Domaine de l'Envol is, above all, the symbiosis of two estates and several human stories. On one side, there is the family vineyard of Bernard, Manuela, Daniel, and Catherine Hirsinger; on the other, Maison Jean Freudenreich, passionately taken over and managed by Raphaël Marchal. Both pioneers in bottled wine sales, they chose to unite in 2016 to create a single estate, faithful to their shared values. Authenticity first, with biodynamically managed vines, free from chemical products, respecting all living organisms. Conviviality next, by pooling their expertise, experiences, and vision for wine. Here, the objective is simple: to bottle living grapes using natural methods and without artifice, to preserve the integrity of the grape variety. They appreciate honest, straightforward, indulgent wines with flavor and substance. What also deeply motivates them is mutual aid and sharing, pillars of the wine world: advice, loaned tools, and knowledge transfer among winemakers. Across a mosaic of approximately twenty hectares of terroirs, Raphaël, Daniel, and Catherine craft cuvées with strong identities, capable of evoking as much emotion during tasting as they feel daily in producing their wines.
