Les Équilibristes

Les Équilibristes, translating to "The Tightrope Walkers," is a French collective dedicated to crafting natural wines that embody balance, innovation, and respect for terroir. Founded by François de Monval, a Parisian restaurateur and wine merchant, and Florent Girou, a traveling oenologist and winemaker, the group collaborates with passionate winegrowers across various French regions to produce unique, expressive wines.

Central to their philosophy is organic viticulture, emphasizing grape varieties deeply connected to their respective terroirs. They prioritize massal selections, soil vitality through biodynamic practices, and vinify exclusively with indigenous yeasts. Avoiding corrective additives and minimizing sulfur usage (targeting less than 40 mg), their approach ensures authentic expressions of each vineyard.
