Why join the Independent Winegrowers movement?

Being an independent winemaker is much more than just a job: it is a lifestyle choice, a passion, a conviction. Joining our movement means sharing this vision with thousands of men and women who, like you, believe in the power of terroir, craftsmanship, and independence.

Joining a family, asserting an identity

Being an Independent Winemaker is not just a way of working—it is a strong choice, an identity. By joining the Independent Winemakers of France movement, you are joining a community of committed, passionate, supportive winemakers who defend an artisanal, sustainable, and human approach to winemaking.

Our charter, based on independence, control over all stages of production, and direct sales, promotes your work, your history, and your expertise.

 

Shared values, a strong voice

Together, we speak with one voice on issues affecting our profession: regulations, representation, and defending our interests before French and European institutions. Alone, we move quickly. Together, we go further.
