Two brothers Maurice and Bernard Leyraud then run the
property. The
daughter of one of the two brothers married Jean Pierre Bertrand, who took over
the place in 1999 after his father in-law.
At this time the domaine covered 30
hectares of Cotes
du Rhone Village Rasteau, which at the transition to the CRU status was changed
to 26 ha. AOP Rasteau and 4 ha. Cotes du Rhone.
