Sometimes a winegrower is too far ahead of their time to be properly appreciated during their career. Régis Moro, along with his wife Therèse and son Sébastien, founded Vieux Château Champs de Mars in the early 1980s, in the rolling hills of the Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux appellation, mere kilometers from the Amoreau family’s legendary Château Le Puy. Locale is not all Moro shared with Le Puy, however: Régis took a similarly rigorous approach in his vineyards, working organically from the outset and gradually incorporating biodynamic treatments; he also adopted low-intervention cellar work, favoring spontaneous fermentations, eschewing temperature control and new oak, and bottling very gently and naturally.
