Dans la quiétude de Sury en Vaux, à l’échancrure d’une route, la grande bâtisse cossue de ce domaine prend la pose. Au milieu du velours côtelé des vignes sancerroises, les R. se sentent pousser des racines depuis quatre générations. Le front large, le port altier, le père jubile intérieurement : après des humanités œnologiques à Beaune, ses deux fils se font un prénom dans la galaxie des étoiles du vin.
Chaque frère tricote son petit pan de vie, entre Bourgogne et Berry, dans le respect de la paix des cépages et des conseils permanents. Pas une semaine sans qu'ils ne se voient.
Dans ce genre d’affaire, on ne dicte pas, on suggère au nom d’intérêts supérieurs qui échappent à chacun, mais ces échanges permanents servent naturellement les deux domaines.
Quand tu lui demandes son métier,
Il te répond sa passion de la terre.
Marchant dans ses vignes digne et fier,
Il parle de ses ancêtres comme si c’était hier.
Il caresse chaque feuille avec tendresse,
Soupèse chaque grappe avec adresse ;
La vigne demande temps et compréhension,
Pour qu’une belle floraison fasse son apparition.
