Matthieu Ponson of Domaine de Piéblanc.
Domaine JL Chave has been handed down from father to son since 1481. Domaine Alary, in Cairanne, isn’t quite so old – its family of owners has been tending vines since 1692. Domaine de Piéblanc was founded rather more recently: this domaine has just celebrated its 10th anniversary.
‘It’s not a domaine I took over, it’s one I created,’ says the domaine’s owner, Matthieu Ponson. He says there are two reasons for his success. Firstly, ‘I’m not from here,’ he says. And secondly, when he started making wine, ‘I wasn’t a vigneron.’
