🍷 INTENT AND USES

This bottle box pays homage to a timeless figure in French history: Charles de Gaulle.

Conceived as the object he could have chosen to embody a wine symbolizing freedom, quality and tradition, this cork features the Cross of Lorraine and the inscription “Grand Vin” — a direct echo of his attachment to national heritage.

The aesthetic is inspired by the great Bordeaux estates, where excellence is never a choice but a requirement.

More than a decorative object, this piece tells a vision of France: strong, rooted, alive.
And like every French Castle cork, it acts as a reminder.
A reminder that wine cannot be kept indefinitely. It must be shared.
And that the present time is the only wealth that cannot be pushed away.

a lasting legacy

wine ink

For some pieces, the ends marked with tannin, we use a unique ink, derived from the recycling of grape marc.

Transformed into pigment powder by a partner company, this noble material is applied by hand to the wood, providing a natural, deep, and symbolic tint.

A further tribute to wine, its land, and what it leaves behind.
