In a few words ...
A native of Pouilly, whose parents were promoters, Alexandre bain was born without vines. In 2007, he set up on 5 hectares of land in the Boisfleury area (clay-limestone) and signed his first vintage that same year. He owes his love of the land to his farmer grandfather. He combines it with his other passion, animal traction, as he ploughs part of his vineyard on horseback. A follower of biodynamic viticulture, he harvests ripe Sauvignons, barrel-aged with very little sulfur. Neither yeasted, nor chaptalized, nor filtered, his wines claim to be natural and are golden, generous, sometimes more accomplished on the palate than on the nose.

Alexandre Bain
Alexandre Bain is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 10 wines available to purchase, including the wine Les Grandes Hates 2020.
Appellation
Vin de France (Rhône)
The appellation Vin de France (Rhône) is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Alexandre Bain and its 10 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
