Domaine les Clefs d'Or

About 1900 a cooper Maurice Deydier, who was out of a wine grower family decided to become a wine grower himself and changed the building from a cooperage into a wine cellar. He aquired some fields and so did his son Jean who took over in the 1950-ties. 
Until 2009 his son Pierre Deydier has been running the domain together with his daughter Laurence and his nephew Jean-Francois Deydier. Now Pierre is going in retirement and leaves the responsibility to Laurence and Jean-Francois. They will be the 6th generation of winegrowers.

Over the years the property has grown to 25 hectares of vineyards in Chateauneuf du Pape mainly situated at the lieux-dits Pied Long and La Crau. Furthermore 12 hectares of Cotes du Rhone Village Massif d'Uchaux situated at the slopes around Beaumefort.
