In 2002 Christian's son Julien joined his father and he wanted to give a broader scale at the domain. He had then completed studies in winemaking and business. He wanted to do something more than just sell the wines to a negociant. 
He is a typical representative for the young well educated generation in Chateauneuf du Pape full of self-confidence and devoted to go his own way, well aware of the traditions you have to follow and thankful to his forefathers who left him fields with healthy vines. It will be interesting to follow what he can achieve with his will to work hard and his drive to do something new.

The domain has 12,5 ha. in AOC Chateauneuf du Pape (only red wines are produced). The average age is 60 years old, but 1/3 of the vines are more than 100-year-old Grenache. This is the case for the 1,6 ha vineyard at Grand Pierre. This parcel is free of pebbles and with sandy red soils located at the slopes. Another good parcel is 0,8 ha. also with 100-year-old Grenache at Terres Blanches (photo to the right). Also at Palestor is 2,3 ha. with 100-year-old Grenache. Julien is also very fond of his 0,5 ha. parcel at  Pierre A Feu with 60-year-old Cinsault.

For the vintages 2003 only one cuvée was produced. The new name for the domain and the wine became the Domaine la Barroche.

Since vintage 2004 three quite different cuvées have been made and from 2006 another cuvée (Terroir) from young vines.
