Description
After studying viticulture and oenology in Beaune, Simon Lecomte sets out on a journey to meet avant-garde winegrowers. He draws on their words and practices and returns to Burgundy to set up a brewery there with the aim of transposing oenology and winemaking processes to the development of his beers. He begins by filling around thirty barrels which he stores with fellow winegrowers. In 2018, he set up the brewery in Sens, a small hamlet of Sennecey-Le-Grand, following the discovery of an old virgin 17th century barn. After several months of work to rehabilitate the place, he installed his tanks there and continued the work initiated a few years earlier. It was not until spring 2019 before the first beers were released from their barrels
