M. BONNAMY - CAVE DES VIGNERONS DE SAUMUR
Loire, France
In 1957, around forty winegrowers grouped together to confront the economic difficulties of the era, pooling far more than mere financial concerns. At the time, Robert, Marcel, Yvon, Genevieve and the others, hailing from the same terroir, hwen from the same rock and sharing the same time-honored values, set up their cooperative at the top of the hill in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg. "They chose to share their experience, their expertise and their dreams."
