Our family tree dates back to 1475. That was the year Jean, the first winemaker in the family, was born. The estate was established in Ampuis, in the heart of the Côte-Rotie vineyards and has since then been passed down from generation to generation.
Today, history is still in the making, and we are still working the ancestral lands as a family.
We are committed to producing wines that are as close as possible to our terroir, and we constantly adapt our work practices to respect the soil and the plant. We are so lucky to be able to farm the ‟Gardens of Rome”’!
