The founder of the domain Dirk Vermeersch has quite an unusual backgrund to become a wine grower.
He was born in Belgium in 1952 and has a past as a business man and rally driver (1973-86). This face ended with a serious accident. After some years in the automobil business he decided to change his style of life and become a vigneron.
In 2000 he purchaced a 200 years old big mansion near Tulette with some vineyards. The first vintage of his own was then 2001. His daughter Ann and Sébastien Barbara have since 2005 been responsible for the wine making.
The couple were both attending the wine school in Orange.
In 2010 a new and modern cellar was built by their own vineyards in Suze-la-Rousse

Today the domain covers 25 ha of Cotes du Rhone Village or IGP area. In 2006 a parcel of 0,16 ha in Chateauneuf du Pape was bought and from here about 600 bottles of Chateauneuf du Pape are made.
The owned  vineyards are certified agriculture biologique.
