Both studied oenology and viticulture in Bordeaux and gained international experience in California and South Africa before taking over Damien’s family estate in Amboise in 2002. They converted the vineyard to organic and biodynamic practices, producing wines that authentically express the terroir. Their minimalist approach in both vineyard and winery emphasizes sustainability and minimal intervention.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer and Winemaker\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eDamien and Coralie Delecheneau are the proprietors and winemakers at La Grange Tiphaine.
