Interview with Clotilde Davenne

Your favourite quality in a woman

Generosity, intelligence and spontaneity. Besides I like that in a man as well.

Your favourite activity

Tasting (everything that deals with the senses), gardening : vegetables and flowers.

Your best wine-related memory

A 1992 Chablis old vines : great mineral vibrations.

Your best wine-related encounter

All my encounters with wine enthusiasts. Especially winegrowers, but also wine lovers who discover.

Your funniest anecdote…

When you make a friend believe that the Crémant bubbles come from the grapes…

Your favourite wine/wine producing area

I have many favourites but I particularly like to discover… the wine that I particularly know well, gives me pleasure, not that I am being chauvinistic, but because I know it well, it brings me a lot of pleasure, i.e. Chablis and Saint Bris.

Your motto or your favourite quote

“Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today” and also “Help yourself and god will help you”
