A propos du producteur
En 1973, Maurice Robert et son épouse Simone investissent et achètent le Château Turcaud. Tous deux Charentais d'origine, ils ont grandi au milieu des vignes entre Saintes et Cognac.
Dès l’adolescence, Maurice attrape le virus de la culture auprès du grand-oncle qui lui explique tous les secrets du métier. Plus tard, il sera chef de culture chez Bégoin, producteur de Pineau et de Cognac à Jonzac. Puis il assurera la gérance du Château de Cadillac en Fronsadais, en Gironde. En 1970, il rejoint un grand professionnel, André Lurton, avec lequel il travaillera pendant 8 ans : c’est là, dit il, qu'il va acquérir une grande expérience de viticulteur. Le vin le passionne.
En 2009, c'est à sa fille Isabelle et à son gendre Stéphane que Maurice Robert transmet sa passion et son savoir-faire.Stéphane travaille à Turcaud depuis 1994. C’est un amoureux des vins, petits et grands, de leur diversité et de leur complémentarité, issus de tous les vignobles. Il veut prendre exemple sur ce qui se fait de meilleur. Isabelle le rejoint en 2002. Ils ont à cœur de poursuivre ce que Maurice et Simone Robert ont mis en place depuis 1973.

About the winery
In 1973, Maurice ROBERT and his wife Simone invested and bought Château Turcaud. Originally both from Charente Maritime, they grew up in a wine area between Saintes and Cognac. As a teenager, Maurice spent much of his time with his cousins, wine growers near Cognac. He caught the virus of the vines, through his relatives who explained at length all the secrets of the trade. A Few years later he became the head of a farm for 6 years at Bégoin, as a producer of Pineau and Cognac at Jonzac. Then he managed the Chateau of Cadillac in Fronsadais for West-Indian investors. In 1970, he finally worked for a major wine professional, André Lurton, until 1978 where he acquired precious experience as a wine grower. Wine quickly becomes his life passion.
In 2009, it is to their daughter Isabelle and to their son-in-law Stephan, that Maurice and Simone ROBERT transmitted the fruit of their experience and passion.
Stéphane has been working at Turcaud since 1994. He is a wine lover and loves all kind of quality wines, whether « small » or great, he loves their diversity and complexity, coming from all wine areas. He wants to take example on what is best. In 2002 Isabelle joined him at her family’s property and trade. Both are really eager to follow up what has been started and developed by their parents since 1973.
