Wine Side Stories
In Bordeaux, what we do is just as important as what we say. Here, we craft with patience, we refine with care and we pass down our know-how with passion! Wine Side Stories is a series of “encounters” between winegrowers and artisans who cultivate high standards and attention to detail.
In each episode, we explore what the two worlds have in common: raw material, time and precision. These are not just interviews but engaging dialogues. Links between professions, sensibilities and expertise.
🎬 Welcome to Wine Side Stories, where Grands Crus de Bordeaux encounter those who enhance a raw material…
Discover the first episode:
When a winegrower meets a chef, dishes simmer in the pan, wine is decanted, and above all, they talk! Eric Monneret, Managing Director of Château La Pointe in Pomerol, joins Sylvain Renzetti, Chef of the Son’ Restaurant in Bordeaux, for a slow-burn encounter... In their respective professions, everything is a matter of raw material, precision and patience. One ages his wine while the other composes his dish. Together, they create a perfect pairing, the result of skills, taste and time.

Second episode:
In Bordeaux, the Garonne is more than just a backdrop. It's a backbone. It links the vineyards to the ports, it has long carried the barrels of wine and it still carries the stories today. In this second episode, we follow Nicolas Sinoquet, Managing Director of Château Gruaud Larose, as he meets Julien Lamire, Carpenter at Chantier Naval Nicolas. On the surface, their jobs have nothing in common. Yet they both work with living materials: wood and wine. Together, they talk about precision, intuition and respect for the material. It's not just an exchange of words: it's an immersion in the gesture, a way of giving new meaning to patience.
