In 1993 the property was owned by madame Veuve Arnaux. This year Philippe du Roy de Blicquy from Paris who had been working in advertising business was looking for a domain somewhere in France and when Domaine Villeneuve was for sale he bought it together with a friend from Paris the notar mr. Wallut. The vineyards (only 8,4 ha.) was very old and and in a state of neglect. The very dynamic Mr. Roy de Blicquy got everything in order in the vineyards and in the cellars. In 2003 he (66 years old) had some health problems and decided to concentrate his many activities to another location and then Wallut's son Stanislas took over Domaine de Villeneuve
The vineyards are certified agriculture biologique and biodynamic 
The vines are from 30 to 100 years old and the yield is normally relatively low. The ageing takes place in tanks and 1-5-years-old barrels (up to 20%) for about 18 months.
