Agroecology (French edition): Four Seasons of the Apocalypse Estate by Dorian Amar

Discover a journey to the heart of 🌱agroecology🌱**, through the notes and observations of Dorian Amar, a winemaker and consultant specializing in domain development and terroir creation.**

This book is the testimony of a young winemaker who chose an island in the Aegean Sea, Patmos, to cultivate vines and experiment with an approach respectful of natural cycles. Arriving on barren land, he undertakes a long regeneration process of the soil, inspired by the principles of agroecology, biodynamics, and agroforestry.

🍇 Viticulture in tune with the seasons

For five years, the author observes and accompanies the transformations of his vineyard:

• The vine, the central element of the project, cultivated with a concern for respecting natural balances
• The olive and fig trees, emblematic Mediterranean trees, integrated into a sustainable ecosystem
• The bees and flowers, essential actors of local biodiversity
• The hens and birds, whose presence enriches the soil and balances the fauna

Each page of this book traces a work where observation and experience are at the heart of the living.

🌍 A holistic and poetic approach

This narrative is not just a simple viticulture manual; it is also a meditation on nature and time. Dorian Amar skillfully combines practice and contemplation, illustrating how regenerative agriculture can be a true philosophy of life.

His poetic and didactic story invites us to see the role of the winemaker differently: more than a wine producer, a guardian of natural cycles, attentive to the interactions between the soil, plants, and animals.

"His book follows in the tradition of the Books of Reason left to us by winemakers and domain owners over time"
Yves Darricau (2021)

🍷 Wine, a message beyond taste

Beyond the technical aspect, this book highlights a dimension often forgotten about wine: its message. Wine from an agroecological approach is not just a simple beverage; it tells a story, uplifts the soul, guides the mind, and awakens passions.

Dorian Amar invites us to change our perspective on vines, to understand the deep connection between the earth, time, and wine. It is a call to wonder, an ode to nature and its incredible power of resilience.
