Josiane and Jean-Luc Faraud
created the domain in 1995 from vineyards which had belonged to their
parents: 2 ha. of Gigondas, 6 ha. of Vaqcueyras and one ha. of Vin du
Pays / Cotes du Rhone.
The name of the domain is made from the
provençal word restanco, which are the name for the walls you build if the vineyards are very
sloping.
Until 2006 the grapes were delivered to the
cooperative. In 2007 a new cellar was ready for the first vintage bottled at the
domain.
Since 2012 the vineyards are certified agriculture
biologique.
