Our vision:
The plant revolution
In the world of viticulture and wine, we often talk about terroir, but rarely about how vine plants are born and prepared to be planted, raised and passed on. And yet, it all starts with the young vines. For over 20 years, visionary entrepreneur Lilian Berillon has been working alongside leading estates to develop plants that reintegrate genetic diversity into vineyards. This unique method opens up an unprecedented opportunity at a time when the world’s vineyards are going through a profound crisis, with a large proportion of them dying off too quickly. By creating resilient plants, better adapted to climatic challenges and capable of producing the great wines of tomorrow, Pépinière Berillon is at the forefront of a sustainable viticultural revolution.
A committed approach
The Berillon "promise"
And today, we are proud to deliver hundreds of different individuals per variety to winegrowers.
We make no compromises: 100% of our production is slit-grafted to guarantee the highest quality.
The winegrowers testify
Pépinière Berillon does more than just supply vine plants. It redefines the standards of modern viticulture. Thanks to our expertise in excellence and a tailor-made approach, each planting becomes a guarantee of long-term success, surpassing the usual standards of quality and traceability.
Our crusade, in quotation marks, is the search for taste. The idea is really to find, in this genetic diversity, in the terroirs, in the plots, in the soils, a taste of great wine, as we call it, that gives this emotion.
We've now reached the point where we realize that we've come to the end of a proposed itinerary. And in the end, we have major doubts as to whether this proposal could be the itinerary for the generations that will follow us.
Oenology used to get a lot of attention. In other words, wine seemed more important than vines. Now we're finally realizing the importance of the vine, but we're only at the beginning.
People often say to me, yes, but how long does a vine last? Like a man, life expectancy. But you have to give it a starting capital, a good capital.
We are, in fact, passers-by today. And when we plant a vine, we also plant it for our children, our grandchildren and our great-grandchildren.
If you make plants that can't survive more than 20 years, if you have to replant all the time, all the time, all the time, that's expensive.
