He tells you about the vines planted by the owner Anne Silberzahn, the history of the estate, and the daily work that shapes each vintage.
Through his explanations, he generously shares his passion for the craft, his respect for the terroir, and the exacting standards that give birth to Val d'Iris wines.

Anne, Ludovic-Armand et Thomas, +30 years of experience
Val d'Iris Estate
Among the vines, you may come across Anne Silberzahn, owner of the estate for more than 25 years, a strong-minded woman deeply connected to this land, which she has shaped with conviction.
In the cellar, Ludovic-Armand, Cellar Master, speaks to you about his farming philosophy, the rhythm of the seasons, and the precise gestures that give rise to the wines, with sincere and contagious passion.
In the tasting room, Thomas Comito welcomes you for a timeless tasting moment, where Val d'Iris cuvées are revealed in a friendly, simple, and authentic atmosphere.
On this former scented iris plantation, Val d'Iris Estate extends over 14 hectares in the Côtes de Provence appellation, of which 9 are in production. The oldest vines are 50 years old; when Anne Silberzahn acquired the estate 25 years ago, she restored, redesigned, and replanted several hectares while preserving the old vines.
She built a cellar to craft great wines and a tasting room to welcome customers. Since 2014, Ludovic-Armand Vilcoq, the Cellar Master, has taken up the torch, in agreement with Anne and in continuity with the quality and identity of the estate's wines, while bringing his own sensitivity to them.
