Mas Neuf ligger på et sted hvor mange er "kommet
forbi" igennem de sidste par årtusinder. I vinmarkerne har man fundet
romerske mønter præget med initialerne VOLC. Disse fund ses i domænets
logo og på etiketterne.
Gennem det 18. århundrede kom tilgrimme tæt forbi Mas Neuf
under vandring fra Saint-Gilles til Santiago de Compostella. Derfor skete det
ofte, at stedet husede overnattende pilgrimme, og derfor byggede man et kapel
på stedet, hvor de vandrende kunne bede. I det 19. århundrede blev kapellet
udnyttet til lagring af vin. Dette kapitel af stedets historie er baggrundet for
navnet på en serie vine under cuvénavnet Compostella.
Luc Baudet fortæller på domænets website om sin vej
til at blive vinbonde, som resulterede i købet af Mas Neuf i 2000.

I have a lifelong passion for food and wine. As far as I can remember, the quality and variety of meals was a major concern
for my mother ... and the result was the subject of much debate and lively tasting.
After finishing school, I took a course in Agricultural Engineering with specialization in Food Science. I had the opportunity to work in parallel on several projects on the taste of AOC cheeses and Audit General Agricultural Competition, which are
tasting each year the best wines and cheeses from France.
Armed with a fresh graduate, I went 18 months to Ireland which allowed me to discover secrets of perfume from the whiskey aging in oak barrels, and I honed
my taste for assemblies and tasting.
Then 8 years of working in multinational companies allowed me to understand the interrelationships between quality, symbolic value of food and consumer perception. Then I wanted to take a distance with the constraints that became less and less compatible with my personal and human aspirations.
We have, with some good wine enthusiasts, travelled over 20,000 km in all the southern vineyards, to find a winery that fits our aspirations. After several unsuccessful attempts, Mas Neuf brought together all the votes and we appropriated this beautiful land. Since three vintages and after returning on the benches of the school of Viticulture and Enology at
l'Agro Montpellier, I now take care of the destiny of my domain.
