Jeff Carrel, born in Paris in 1969, studied chemistry before changing his life and studying oenology in Montpellier. The young graduate takes a tour of France; he will vinify in the Loire, in Alsace, in the Languedoc for a consulting lab which follows the Grange des Pères, Mas Daumas Gassac etc ... Jeff will also vinify for Mondavi in the Languedoc.
