In 1859 Ogier et Fils was founded by Christophe Ogier as a negociant firm.
In 1948 Ogier became negociant-éleveur, as he established his own cellars
for blending and ageing of the wines bought from producers. Some years later his
firm was fusioned with another negociant firm Caves des Papes. Until 2008 the
firm was named Ogier - Caves des Papes. In 1994
Ogier
- Caves des Papes became a part of another firm Vignobles Jeanjean based in
Languedoc.
In 1999 a domain in Chateauneuf du Pape became for sale as none of the heirs
wanted to run the estate. It was Clos de l'Oratoire des Papes which for many
years had been run by the widow after Leonce Amouroux, who beside the wines from
his own estate also bought wines from other producers and marketed these wines by
the brand Leonce Amouroux.
In 2000 Société Léonce Amouroux with its 20 ha of vineyards was bought by Ogier -
Caves des Papes. The wines from Clos de l'Oratoire des Papes have since been
made seperately at Ogier with the original labels from 1926, when the first
wines were bottled this domain. The brand Leonce Amouroux may still be used for
some cuvées.
In 2017
Domaine
la Roncière became a part of Ogier with it's
10 ha of Chateauneuf du Pape and 5 ha
of
Cotes du Rhone Village / Cotes du Rhone.
