Sometimes life takes you exactly where you need to be. For Eddy and Patrick, that meant a new chapter among the vineyards of southern France. A story of passion, courage, and following a dream. <\/p>\n\n
Nestled among the vineyards of the Lot, surrounded by 24 hectares of vineyards, we continue to write the story of Ch\u00e2teau Camp del Saltre every day.<\/p>\n\n
But that story didn’t start in France.<\/p>\n\n
For years, Eddy\u2019s life revolved around the Dutch business world. Meetings, boardrooms, and entrepreneurship shaped his daily life for years. That is, until a life-changing period during the COVID-19 pandemic put everything into a different perspective and made him reevaluate what really matters. <\/p>\n\n
Together with Patrick, we came up with the idea of changing course and pursuing a dream that had been simmering for some time: living and working among the vineyards in France. <\/p>\n\n
A historic winery in Prayssac, in the heart of the famous Cahors wine region, where the Delbru family has been making wine since 1860. For generations, knowledge, craftsmanship, and a love of winemaking have been passed down here. <\/p>\n\n
On our limestone-rich soils, we produce more than 120,000 liters of wine each year. From full-bodied Malbecs and our award-winning ros\u00e9, Le Saltre Pink, to Chardonnay and the unique S\u00e9galin grape, which you\u2019ll hardly find anywhere else. <\/p>\n\n
It\u2019s a place where people gather for vacations, wine tastings, weddings, and long summer evenings among the vines. A place where French tradition and Dutch hospitality come together. <\/p>\n\n
And maybe that’s the best part of this story.<\/p>\n\n
That sometimes you can start a whole new chapter. That dreams don\u2019t have an expiration date. And that a love for France, wine, and the good life can sometimes just turn into a new home. <\/p>\n\n
Curious about the story behind this special move? Eddy talked about it in detail in an interview. <\/p>\n\n
