Domaine de Cristia: Premium Organic Châteauneuf-du-Pape Wines

Discover Domaine de Cristia

Domaine de Cristia, located in Courthézon within the prestigious Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, is a family estate embodying three generations of excellence and passion for the Rhône Valley terroir. Founded in the 1950s by Etienne Grangeon, the estate is now managed by his descendants Baptiste and Dominique, who continue a tradition blending authenticity and modernity.

Terroir and Characteristics

The vineyard spans approximately 50 hectares across Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône, and Vin de France. The sandy and clay-limestone soils typical of the region provide ideal conditions for the emblematic Rhône grape varieties — Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre — to fully express their aromatic richness. Certified organic viticulture favors gentle interventions and natural winemaking to preserve the pure expression of fruit and terroir.
