A passionate man in the aviation service, Jeffrey Cameron Lowe discovered Saint-Emilion wines thanks to a château owner’s invitation. An unforgettable souvenir.
SAINT-EMILION, EXPERIENCE IN WINEMAKING
A wine lover, but without much knowledge of the work of winemakers, Jeffrey Cameron Lowe will always remember his visit to a Saint-Emilion property. Greeted warmly by the winemaker, she showed them: “the production, making and the overall facilities”. To someone who knew nothing about winemaking “it was fascinating to discover all that know-how and to then go back to the vineyard”. Feeling like he now owned a trade secret, he was then able to “feel the whole process of making a good wine”, he explains.
