In France, among quiet cellars and vineyards that seemed to breathe, we met. Words were hardly needed—our shared gaze said it all: the same respect for time and for ingredients, the same curiosity for what emerges when you let things unfold.

At Élevage, in Aversa, I discovered a place where patience becomes care, and every fermentation, every preserve, is an attempt to capture a season and give it back in a new form.

From Octavin, I bring my way of listening to ingredients, transforming them, honoring their story. Here at Élevage, this approach takes on a new life, shaped by different hands, across new lands, without losing its original essence.

It is a shared journey—an invitation to sit, observe, taste… and let yourself be carried along.
