Who are the winemakers behind the estate?

The passion behind the wines

The journey into viticulture is often marked by discoveries and emotions. For Anita, owner of Domaine Canto Perlic, it all began with a fascination for the vineyards of Oregon, her place of origin. Subsequently, she was literally enchanted by the vineyards of France during a memorable trip. This childhood dream, once considered unattainable, finally took shape a few years later, giving rise to an adventure where each wine tells a story.

This new life, however, would not have come to fruition without the talent of her husband Anthony, who also succumbed to the magic of wine. His background in biochemical engineering naturally led him to winemaking, an art in which he excels today. For the winemaking couple, each vintage is a reflection of their shared passion and the culmination of meticulous work.

If each bottle from Domaine Canto Perlic reveals a genuine emotion at tasting, it is primarily because it is the result of a love story: that of a couple for the vine and of an estate for its land.
