The Autard family has, over the years, worked in an old farm in Courthézon and then built a new cellar in 2005 to optimize the work of vinification of the wines.

Jean-Paul Autard inherited this teaching and this knowledge. He brings his own ideas, experiments and intuitions to make Domaine Paul Autard one of the big names in this prestigious appellation.

The vines are 40 to 95 years old, the “La Côte Ronde” cuvée coming from a 90-year-old plot planted in a terroir of rolled pebbles and blocks of fossilized limestone. The main grape varieties are Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, and Muscardin for the reds, and Clairette, Roussanne and Grenache Blanc for the white wines.
