About the domain :
In 1981, Guy Vanlancker, a former schoolteacher from Wallonia, found himself dropped by chance onto the high slopes of Calamiac, where he began planting on terroirs that had been neglected at the time. He patiently developed the estate, which now covers 12 hectares, in organic conversion, on the slopes of La Livinière. His son Ambroise took over the estate in 2021.
