Romain Roches' father Marcel Roche owned 30 ha of vineyards in Cairanne.
As Romaine had got a BTS from the wine school in Beaune, and some commercial education and finished with a full oenological education from the university in Toulouse.
Since 2009  Marcel Roche rented 15 ha to his son, and Romain made his first wine this vintage. The vines have an average age of 50 years. A single parcel is 120 years old. 
In 2014 Romain's father wanted to retire, but Romain was not interested to have a domain of more than 25 ha of the vineyards and therefore the rest was sold.
In 2018 20 ha are in production when 5 ha are during replanting.
In 2014-2015 Romain built a new cellar near the house of his parents ready for the harvest of 2015.
