The Domaine has been part of the Serret / Reynaud family for generations growing and supplying grapes to other producers in the region.  

The History

In the year 2000, David Reynaud began his quest to create a 100% Biodynamic vineyard and to embark on making and marketing the wines from their superbly sited vineyards. This plan came into fruition when in 2003, the Domaine became ECO Certified, and in these first few years his talent at winemaking also quickly became apparent and the wines assert brilliance in their complexity and elegance.


The domaine is made up of 14.5 hectares in Crozes-Hermitage, and an additional 5.5 hectares in local villages amongst the Rhone hills. The vines grown in the Domaine are aged between 20 – 50 years, of which 87% is made up of Syrah. Reynaud also has small plantations of Marsanne, Roussanne, Merlot and Viognier.


The Philosophy

Reynaud farms Biodynamically and, maintains low yields of 35 hl/ha across the Domaine. In the cellar David ferments with only indigenous yeasts. For his reds, he uses whole cluster ferments. Both his reds and whites are typically vinified and aged in concrete eggs.
