Domaine Mayard is a new estate in Châteauneuf-du-Pape that also has generations of history. Arthur and Hugo Mayard have established their own estate following the separation of the family’s vineyards.
Regenerative agriculture is the focus, with potential longevity of the vines bolstered by organic farming methods and biodiversity. The estate lies over a dozen hectares including ten hectares of Châteauneuf-du-Pape in Le Grand Coulet, Les Serres, La Crau Est, and Le Pointu in the communes of Sorgues, Châteauneuf du-Pape and Courthézon. This is accompanied by two hectares of Côtes-du-Rhône nearby. The objective of vinification is to highlight their old vine Grenache, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, and Syrah vines, and most of the Grenache vines are 80-120 years old.
