Sister and brother Dominique and Baptiste Grangeon
are as the third generation in front of the domain today.
In 1999 when Baptiste took over he started to bottle the
wines.
The name Cristia comes from a lieu-dit, which is neighbouring lieu-dit Rayas.
90% of the domain's vineyards are situated at La Cristia and the rest of
Chateauneuf du Pape at
La Roquette. The other vineyards (Cotes du Rhone and IGP) are all situated
in Courthezon.
Today the domain produces wines from 58 ha, 14 ha of Chateauneuf du Pape, of
which one ha is with white varieties,
8 ha of Cotes du Rhone Village, 12 ha of Cotes du Rhone and 18 ha of IGP.
Since 2008 the vineyards have been certified agriculture biologique.
