Tom Lubbe, from South Africa to a small village of 300 people in Roussillon, without return.
It was 2002 and in a short time Tom became a cult producer not only for the wonderful terroir of Calce.
His wines are tense, nervous and mineral like the granite on which the old sapling vines are planted, at the same time graceful and ethereal, like the wind that unfailingly combs those wild hills.
