Domaine Durieu is a family-owned estate, created by Paul Durieu in 1976. In the early 2000’s his two sons, Vincent and François have taken over him. The estate is in the heart of the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Built from 1615 by the Marquise de Senozan, then given to Jean le Power, an Irish nobleman who traded in wine; the building has undergone profound transformations, while retaining its authenticity. At the time, Paul owned a few hectares of old vines in Plan de Dieu and Côtes du Rhône, inherited from his father, Henri Durieu; then some old plots, some of which had been replanted before the First World War, inherited from his mother, Lucile Avril. This family of distinct winegrowers had belonged for several pontificates to the aristocracy of La Treilhe, the very family that contributed to the universal renown of the city of the Popes. Totally committed and passionate about their land, they carried on the legacy while affirming their own philosophy based on elegance and modernity. Bearing in mind the concern about preserving the terroir, the development is set in a sustainable process of both vines and wines, to facilitate the finest expression of both fruit and terroir. Domaine Durieu produce their cuvée from the appellation of Ventoux, Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Village Plan de Dieu and Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
