Pascal Carole is originally from the French Caribbean island of Martinique but hopped around most of his life with long stays in Canada and the United States. After several years of tinkering with fermentation but doing unrelated work, Pascal was introduced to wine making and wine makers through a class at San Francisco’s Ruby Wine. Not long after, he got to pick some grapes and make a little Chardonnay. That experience compelled him to change careers and spend a year working with Brent Mayeaux before moving with his family to Saumur to start his own project.
