Chêne Bleu is a project created by 2 couples, Xavier
Rolet and Nicole Sierra-Rolet together with Jean-Louis and Benedicte Galucci.
Xavier and Nicole are both native Americans. Xavier and Benedicte are
brother and sister.
In 1993 Xavier Rolet bought the place covering 135 ha and made quite a big investments
in renovation of the Medieval buildings and the creation of a very modern
cellar.
For the first ten years after the purchase the grapes were sold to a
cooperative. The first vintage made at the domain was 2006. Only the two
top cuvées Abelard and Héloïse was made that year.
The vineyards covers 30 ha situated at an altitude of 500-600m The main part of the vineyards are situated
in the commune Crestet in AOP Ventoux. The top wines from the estate are
named IGP Vaucluse.
