Château Jean Faure, between nature and culture, is the portrait of a singular wine estate in the heart of Saint-Émilion. On the edge of Pomerol, this eighteen-hectare vineyard stands out for an exceptional proportion of cabernet franc, planted on deep clays, a historic singularity that gives its wines a slender, precise and deeply expressive identity. But Jean Faure is much more than a wine: it is a place of life conceived as an ecosystem in which nature and culture converse constantly. The wood that crosses the estate acts as a beating heart, a refuge for biodiversity that structures the landscape and reveals its verticality, while animals, insects, plants and minerals coexist in a balance carefully orchestrated by humans. Nothing here is spectacular or ostentatious: buildings old and new fit the history of the place as if they had always been there, and the biodynamics practised on the estate express this global, sensitive approach to living things. Through this book Jean Faure reveals itself as a biotope, a living organism in which every element finds its place.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days.
