Catharina Sadde was not originally planning to become a winemaker. She was studying gastronomy while working in restaurants in her native Dresden, Germany when she got bit by the wine bug. She did an internship with Schafer-Frohlich and then Domaine Chevrot in Burgundy, where she decided this was the region she really wanted to focus on.

After completing her degree in viticulture she returned to Burgundy and proceeded to put together a resumé that would make any aspiring winemaker green with envy. She worked at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Drouhin, de Vogüé and Marquis D’Angerville. All of these domains were pioneers in biodynamic farming and Catharina was convinced that this was how she wanted to work.

Her most recent gig was working alongside Cecile Trembley, another extraordinary talent, and while doing so she was offered a small parcel of vines. This offer was followed by a few more and once they had acquired about 1.3, she and her husband Guilhem made the leap and started their own winery.

As mentioned, Catharina is a fanatic for natural, biodynamic farming. They do everything in the vineyard by hand, and for now by themselves too. They settled on the name “Les Horées” because it refers to ancient Greek celebrations during the changing of seasons. Everything Catharina and Guilhem due is focused on nature.
