For Am\u00e9lie the winegrowing business was no major discovery. Like Ob\u00e9lix, she stumbled into this domain when she was very young.<\/p>\n
At the age of 14, Am\u00e9lie wanted to follow a BTA (agricultural technician) course but her father insisted she study for the Baccalaur\u00e9at. Upset and somewhat stubborn,\u00a0Am\u00e9lie kept her distance from the vineyard for several years.<\/strong><\/p>\n After her Baccalaur\u00e9at, she went on to study for a Masters degree in human resources, before going to work\u00a0in a bank as an HR Manager where she remained for 10 years.<\/strong><\/p>\n Following her father\u2019s advice to open up new horizons for herself, enriched by her unusual and educative career, she returned to Domaine de Nerleux in 2010 and thus became the\u00a0ninth generation<\/strong>\u00a0to work there.<\/p>\n Am\u00e9lie loves every aspect of her job.<\/strong> Each day brings hundreds of new things to do, no two days are alike, and she never gets bored. Keen to make her own personal contribution, she has also developed wine tourism at Domaine de Nerleux. For her, a typical day starts with an early morning visit to the vineyard to see her employees. At lunchtime, she sometimes meets with other local winegrowers.<\/p>\n The notion of sharing is very strong in these appellation areas and a good atmosphere reigns between the different estates.<\/strong>\u00a0In the afternoon and evening, Am\u00e9lie takes care of the marketing side of things. Domaine de Nerleux is an estate of significant size but remains a family estate with a human feel, a real team spirit and an excellent atmosphere. All of the staff have been there for over 10 years, some of them as long as 30 years.<\/p>\n Domaine de Nerleux benefits from the exceptional setting<\/strong> of the quarries that surround the vineyard and which provided the tuffeau stone used in the estate\u2019s buildings. The wine is pleasant to drink and its very purpose is to enhance moments spent in the company of other people. Am\u00e9lie is as generous in her wines as she is in life.<\/strong> The wine batches are so diverse that she can produce a very wide range of different blends, from classic vintages for basic pleasures, to wines with more originality.<\/p>\nHer daily life<\/h3>\n
