The name Pegau (old Provencal word for a wine jug found in the excavations of the 14th century Popes Palace in Avignon) was created in 1987, when Laurence Feraud after her wine studies went home to help her father Paul Feraud at the domaine. Paul always talk about Laurence  as "le chef", but he is an experienced winemaker himself. The property has belonged to the family for several generations. From 1986 Paul Feraud started bottling of wine and sold it under the mark Domaine Feraud.
Today father and daughter have made Pegau to one of the best wines in Chateauneuf du Pape. They have 17 ha. with red varieties and 1 ha. with white grapes. The 11 parcels are spread around the appellation and gives different wines, which after the blending result in a very distinct wine, a true classic Chateauneuf du Pape. In the fields organic methods are used.

Feraud - Brunel
This a a joint venture between Laurence Feraud of Domaine du Pegau and Andre Brunel of Domaine les Cailloux. The goal here is to produce moderate quantities of Cotes du Rhone and Cotes du Rhone Villages, along with smaller quantities of wines from more prestigious appellations. The current line up includes Cairanne, Rasteau, Vacqueyras, Gigondas and Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Cotes du Rhone and Cotes du Rhone Villages are sourced from multiple growers. The other wines (except Cairanne) are purchased from one single grower each under long term contracts. The Chateauneuf du Pape is made from 80%
Grenache, 12% Mourvèdre and some Cinsault and Vaccarèse.
