Maudit Flacon vinifies grapes produced organically and biodynamically from the Languedoc, Auvergne, pays de Gex amongst other regions. The grapes are grown by winemakers who, like François Gilles, believe that wine is made in the vineyard. Vinification takes place in François Gilles' cellar, in his garage to be exact. The white grapes are hardly settled and the reds are never crushed. He only intervenes when necessary. Never fined nor filtered.
