In 2013, he learned winemaking under Jura’s Jean-Marc Brignot, then settled with his partner Anne Bruun Blauert in the small Ardèche village of Valvignères—a place with deep roots in wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"846\" data-start=\"604\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eTheir philosophy is as simple as it gets: \u003cem data-end=\"673\" data-start=\"646\"\u003e“grapes and only grapes.”\u003c\/em\u003e Anders farms a small patch himself and works closely with friends in Ardèche (like Gérald Oustric) and in Alsace (the Bannwarth family), all committed to organic farming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1101\" data-start=\"848\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eIn the cellar, nothing is rushed.
