Frédéric Chastan's grandparents
founded the domain in
the 1950s. His grandfather André
Chastain came from a wine
growing family in Vacqueyras
and his wife
Pauline from a
similar family in Gigondas.
Until January 2011 father
and Frédéric
Chastan was co-owners.
In the beginning of 2011 Frédéric became the
owner and a few months later he
submitted a request to be certified
agriculture biologique which
all vineyards have
been since 2014.
Chateauneuf du Pape and the wines are released 4-9 years after harvest. In
August 2016 actual wines for sale were Chateauneuf du Pape 2007 and Gigondas
2010.
