Meet the Winemaker
Domaine de Torraccia | Marc and Sarah Imbert, Owners
Christian Imbert, a pioneer in organic farming, is the patriarch of Domaine de Torraccia, but it is Christian’s elder son Marc who has been in charge of the domaine since 2008. “When analysing our soils, it’s clear that Torraccia is the way it is today because it remained simple and authentic. This is the quality that I want to have preserved.” A former wine supervisor in California, Marc has a keen knowledge of sales techniques. “A very American concept,” he says. “But now I’ve turned a corner; I am a winemaker and that changes everything!”
