"A lot has been written about Andrea Calek. Originally he is from Czech, but after following his own unique path, he wound up in France.
Andrea first came in to contact with the wonders of natural wine through the original Gang of Four; Lapierre, Thevenet, Foillard and Breton. Through working with Guy Breton, Andrea learned the ways of allowing the vines to speak for themselves through their wine. Since then, he has been driven by this passion and allows every one of his wines to speak for themselves. This means that if they take 2 years to ferment, they take 2 years to ferment. If the malo decides to never happen, he does not force it. And throughout the journey of the vine to the grape and in to the wine, he allows the wine to make itself, with only the minimalist amount of help to guide it on its way.- Sensus Wine
He and his partner Stephanie are currently working together to make these stunning wines.- Eric Swikard, founder of Vin2U
