Château de Montfaucon

Château de Montfaucon rises above the Rhône from a site marked by an eleventh-century fortress. The de Pins family’s ancestors acquired the property in the eighteenth century, and Rodolphe de Pins returned in 1995 after winemaking experience in France and abroad. The estate’s vineyards lie on the Rhône’s right bank, opposite Châteauneuf-du-Pape, with Lirac at the heart of its range. One wine revives an 1829 family label and the blend of numerous grape varieties associated with Baron Eugène de Montfaucon.
