Farewell Willy...

Farewell Willy, farewell father, farewell winemaker!

Our father Willy Michellod passed away on 27 January 2023 at the great age of 87.

He ran and developed the Cave le Bosset with passion for 30 years from 1971 to 2001, before passing the torch to his daughters and sons-in-law. From the time he retired until his final years, he was always on hand, happy to contribute to the life of the winery by helping out with bottling, wine delivery, reception and tasting. Sharing his passion and giving of himself was his reason for living. An impromptu visit from friends or customers to the winery was always a source of great pleasure for him, and an opportunity to maintain friendships or create new ones.

Thank you Willy, thank you Dad, thank you winegrower!

We will continue to perpetuate the beautiful things in life that you have passed on to us by giving the best of ourselves in the vineyard, in the cellar and at the winery. Because cultivating altruism gives life all its meaning.
