In the shadow of the fight against breast cancer, the month of October also remains dedicated to another fight: that against Rett syndrome. This neurological condition remains rare. But it can cause serious developmental and learning problems. Although it affects everyone, this disease often remains the sad prerogative of women, for whom it constitutes the leading cause of multiple disabilities. Rodolphe Travel is one of the managers of Vitinova, a digital communication platform focused on the world of wine. Above all, he is the father of little Romane, 7 years old, affected by this condition. To raise public awareness, he had the idea of setting up the Rett Wine Tour, walks and races through the region’s vineyards to meet the public, organize solidarity collections, without forgetting of course have local wines tasted there. To do this, he called on winegrower friends for the first, on November 1, consisting of a walk in the vineyards dominated by the participants’ green balloons. The Domaine des Conquêtes, always quick to show solidarity for just causes, obviously responded to the call, accompanied by the managers of neighboring AOP or IGP domains. If you want to support the cause, go to the Vitinova page or to www.afsr.fr to make a donation. ML correspondent: 06.03.15.26.05
