The domaine was created in 1975 when the brothers Richard divided their
property and J Richard became the owner of what became Domaine le Sang des
Cailloux. In 1979 Serge Férigoule became
an employe at the domain. He was educated from the wine school in Montpellier. As Richard
had no family to succeed him Serge Férigoule became co-owner and later on
the owner of the domain in 1990. In 2001 new cellars were established.
