The Domaine of Panisse is a typical Provencal building dating from the 15th century (1472), surrounded by 16 acres of Châteauneuf-du-Pape vines. Situated in the prestigious wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the Domaine de Panisse benefits from mature vines, some of which were planted in 1924. The Domaine of Panisse was bought in April 2020 by the Vacheron family. Situated only 2 km north of Clos du Caillou on one of the most beautiful terroirs of this wine region, the Domaine of Panisse represents a fantastic opportunity for the next generation: Marilou Vacheron, Axel Vacheron and Antoine Robert. Supported by their elders, Sylvie Vacheron and Bruno Gaspard, these three young people begin this new challenge, to regenerate this unique spot, to create wines reflecting the culture of this terroir and in so doing, to write a new page of history. It was clear from the start the Vacheron family wanted to make the Domaine fully organic and biodynamic like the Clos du Caillou has been since 2007.
As soon as the Vacheron family took over the property, they pledged to preserve this magical site, not only its vines but also all its lavender fields, cyprus and olive trees, and to maintain a naturally rich organic soil.
