THE COMPANY

The new Vacheron generation, from Clos du Caillou, acquired this historic estate north of Châteauneuf-du-Pape in 2020, launching a development project that led to organic certification in 2023. The Domaine extends around an ancient 15th-century Provençal farmhouse and comprises approximately 6.5 hectares of old vineyards planted on safres, sand and round pebbles, with Grenache parcels dating back to 1921. The conversion to organic and biodynamic agriculture, in keeping with the founders’ philosophy, aims to enhance the richness of these historic terroirs. The result is wines with great identity, combining finesse, depth and aromatic complexity, fully representing the contemporary elegance of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
