Pierre
Ciot
Photographer
of profession, Pierre Ciot wanted to show Marseilles
at this beginning of 3rd millennium through thousands
glances that he caught on the occasion of 2000
snapshots.
These photos were published in the form of a book
called 'Nés à
Marseille'.
Jérôme and Eric are 'born in Marseilles'.
But photographed in Marseilles they do not forget the
Chateau La Borie.
One
month after the opening we put online the second version
of the french site.
We limited the size of
pages and the contents evolved largely . During
August the English part of the site will be updated.
April
2001 Plantation
of a plot of 2.6 acres of Syrah and a plot of 2.5 acres of
Grenache.
Establishment of the 'palissage' (action of raising the
vegetation to maximize the exposure to the sun) on 7.4 acres
of Mourvedre planted last year.
Repair of the 'palissage' of 4.9 acres of vines 20 years
old.
Installation on 42 acres of pins that will make the 'palissage'
operation much more efficient and quick. Before it was
necessary to act on every plant and to interlace the bearers
to raise them. The new system of pins allows us to raise a
complete row one shot.
