Domaine Julien Masquin, Humeur, Aop Côtes Du Rhône, Red

Paul Masquin, grandfather of current proprietor, bought a few vines in Courthézon in 1936. However, busy with the creation of a brush company, he entrusted them in sharecropping to neighboring winegrowers. Caressing the dream of making his own wines, his grandson Julien took over the estate in 1998. He devoted all his efforts to the return of sustainable farming methods and environmentally friendly practices. A decade later, the first vintage of Domaine Julien Masquin came to life.
