Domaine Olivier Schlatter

If he calls himself a “follower”, it’s just in the context of following those who ride to hounds hunting on horseback in the Tronçais forest, about 110 km or 65 miles to the south. This is something he participates in on a regular basis. Otherwise, he’s a go-getter. An accountant by training, he came to the Loire and Pouilly to join his wife, for love. He started out with little land, just a few ares, (one are being only 1,110 square feet) and his holdings have grown to three hectares (seven acres); these made him into an independent winemaker. He would have liked to have more, but it’s already something! For a basketball fan, this is scoring a full court shot!
