The Jacumin family has for more
than a century been wine growers in Chateauneuf du Pape. The estate has been handed down
for four generations from father to son.
The son of Alain and Sylvette Jacumin, Albin Jacumin, graduated from
wine school, is today responsible for the winemaking.
The federation of wine growers wishes that only wines from AOC
Chateauneuf du Pape include the name "Pape" at the
labels. Therefore the name of the domain has been changed to
Domaine Albin Jacumin.
New cellars have resently been built in the northern part of the town.
The property covers 16 ha. of Chateauneuf du Pape and 2
ha. of Cotes du Rhone.
