The story
Gilbert Dupuy Starts Bottling
Gilbert Dupuy started producing bottled wine in his quest for superior quality. The Dupuy family had been winemakers since 1772, with ancestors producing grapes at Noliquet in Lansac. Gilbert's action connected that long grape growing tradition to wine in bottle. The change was concrete: the family operation began producing finished bottled wine, continuing its work with grapes in a different form. Gilbert Dupuy's decision remains the episode's centre, with superior quality as his aim.
