The estate: The Châteauneuvoise history of the Usseglio family dates back to 1931 , the year in which Francis Usseglio left Italy to settle in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and work there as an agricultural worker. In 1948, the latter had the opportunity to exploit 8 hectares of vines in sharecropping and therefore decided to create his own estate. His son Pierre will take over and continue to develop the family business. Now comprising 39 hectares including 25 of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, 6 of Lirac, 6 of Côtes-du-Rhône and 2 in AOC Vin de France, the vineyard is today managed by Pierre's 2 sons: Jean-Pierre and Thierry Usseglio. The two brothers look after a very beautiful heritage of vines, half of which are over 65 years old, as well as a wide variety of terroirs including the famous pebbles but also clay-limestone and sandy soils. The estate has now become a reference farm in the region and all production enjoys a very high level of quality thanks to superb work in the vineyard and in the cellars.
